Just tired of it.

Tired of waking up in the morning and dreading what I'll find what Trump has done while I'm sleeping.
Just tired of listening to his cabinet full of henchmen regurgitating the stupidity.
Just tired of worrying that he will be sending arms to Putin.
Tired of wondering which Putin connected oligarch will be removed from the sanctions list.
Tired of the corporate media putting lipstick on this pig of an administration.
Tired of worrying what he will do to our retirement savings and social security.
The continued barrage of nonsense, lies and hate from this corrupt criminal administration is just too much.

Well off to the gym. There is some black iron that needs to be moved around.

Some people would get outraged about.

Interesting I can still remember those horrific transgressions.

Trump has littered the playing field so much it hard to pick out specific ones.

I ask "what new fuckery happened overnight"....he asks the same if I'm up first.

Sometimes, the answer is "I think it's still asleep" and that's what passes for a good day now.

I think it was by The Fabulous Thunderbirds and/or Jimmy Vaughan (?) but it rings true. Really hard to see the point in this darkness.

He is making my "golden years" a living hell. The dread, anxiety and apprehension is bad enough, but the anger that comes with the assault on our country, our laws, and our democracy that goes unchecked is quite a bit to bear.

Thank heaven for this wonderful community of like-minded liberals. It helps to share.

10. Trump nor his administration is EVER going to do the right thing.

Why start our days dreading what he is going to do to us and our country, when we should be starting them by brainstorming what we are going to do to him and his cabal.
