Coping with 2 realities at once: the daily diasters of T 'govt' and probs in my own life

We are all doing this and being doubly stressed, whereas with Obama we didn't have to monitor the govt with an eagle eye.

The problems are compounded by the reality that daily things T's govt does or will do make our daily lives immensely more difficult. For me, worry about my social security and medicare coverage. Plus worry about pension, well-administered but affected by stock market. And my son's and DIL's jobs and healthcare.

Oh for the days of the 60s, when we really thought (or at least I did) that we were beginning to eradicate blatant stupidity and bigotry and establishing a better future for our country.
