...it's a feeling of shock, that we're reduced to this. I can't even hate him, like I'd hate a Cruz or Christie. He's so obviously unhinged, I can't even feel he's responsible for his actions anymore. I just want this to be over...

I watched it over and over again in the Bush years.

I can now recite the dialog as well as the actors.

I can watch "Dave" or "An American President" but that won't occupy much time.

We are only 7 months into this debacle.

Don't overdose on the news. It isn't healthy.

I'm trying some video games, but I will catch Rachel tonight.

I tuned in after the press conference after DU lit up.
The news started devolving, so I turned it off.
24 hour news means the same story gets told over and over.

Enough. I get it. He went off the rails. Nobody is happy about it.
