Feel Like Going To Farthest Reach Of Patagonia Where No Trump News.

Not that I would do it, but Patagonia is about as far as you can go south. There's a neat little city down there in southern Argentina that at least has some decent amenities. How much more of this chamber of horrors can we take?

I have a better idea, but it is harder to do. Let's just send Trump to Patagonia instead.

I feel the same way that you do: I'm not sure how much more of this I can take.

It Is on the main road Route 40 that goes through Argentina. Just the last part is 490 miles from the middle of Argentina to the end in Patagonia.

Or only turn into channels that don't know any news. Limit your on-line browsing to similar sites.

Actually, just not owning a TV makes all the difference. I have no trouble knowing what's happening in the world and I don't get bamboozled by the way relatively trivial things can dominate the news cycle.
