Enough of Trump!

As of 10 p.m. on December 30, 2020, there are 518 hours remaining of Donald Trump's presidency. It can't end soon enough for me. 

After high noon on January 20, 2021, I hope he'll take his self-pardon, leave town and fade away. Period. 

After four torturous years of his presidency, watching Trump's antics another hour -- even if he's suffering! -- doesn't interest me all that much. So, if watching him face the music means I would have to look at him ... well, I'd rather not. 

You see, I've really had enough of Trump. And, I think the USA will be better off breaking its Trump habit. Consequently, after he's out of the White House, my hope is that the mainstream corporate media will finally wise up, do its duty, and make it a policy to ignore the son-of-a-bitch. That simple change would start shrinking the evil monster the media once did so damn much to build up -- so he could make plenty of easy-to-gather news that drew lots of attention.  

Hey, all of Trump's future schemes to stay in the public eye and raise money depend heavily on him being able to continue to steadily feed stories to the media that will grow legs. Yet, news stories about how great he is, or how foolish he is, or how terrible he is, all serve to buff his celebrity status. 

However, a serious national movement to boycott all media that focus on him/promote him would eventually finish off the dangerous threat he is to our pursuit of happiness. Here's the truth: Without the press keeping a spotlight on this monster, he will shrivel like a drenched wicked witch.

Enough of Trump!
