Does it bother anyone else? Are there millions of people out there who daily find themselves pondering the absurdity or maybe even shaking a fist at… somebody?
Here we are, nine years after Trump descended from on high, almost four years after he was soundly beaten in the last election (and the one before that, too), a few years removed from two impeachment trials, and almost daily evidence of incompetence and delusional thinking, not to mention 4 indictments and 91 felony counts. And he’s still standing, still in our faces being loud and pathetic.
And he still has supporters who love him.
In a way, it reminds me of our kids’ first experience playing soccer. Wherever the ball was was where the entire team went. There was no position play. The same thing has been happening with Trump—wherever he is, whatever he says, the media trip over themselves to cover it, unwittingly or maybe knowingly feeding the beast.
History may rhyme, but I bet in the annals of our 248-year existence, we haven’t seen anyone quite like this guy. He deserves to be thrown out on his ear, but instead people still worship the ground he walks on.
Same old story, I guess.
