Worse than Boring

Oh well, another opinion poll says President Joe Biden has a ho-hum job approval rating. Nonetheless, I've learned that there are many things in new millennium life that are worse than being bored by another corny Biden speech. 

For instance:
  • Think back to before Jan. 21, 2021, to remember what it was like to watch MAGA cultists at a rally lapping up every crazy word of that day's meanspirited rant by then-President of the USA, Donald Trump. It was galling. 
  • Think back to before Jan. 21, 2021. Then remember what it was like to watch elected Republicans genuflecting, as they pretended to buy that day's gusher of lies by then-President Trump. It was depressing. 
  • Think back to before Jan. 21, 2021. Then try to recall the awful feeling of what it was like to live with no hope for a brighter day. No hope that dangerous national problems can be addressed, since the federal government's only mission is to pleasure the wealthy class.   
The list of horribles could go on for many more column inches, but I think my point has been made. So, yes, there are plenty of things worse than having a calm, predictable president who actually seems to care about ordinary people.
