impeached months ago.

It is tough.

I started reading the Maisie Dobbs crime novels, set in the UK in the 1920s and 1930s, about the work of a smart woman in a different place and time.

and binge watch shows....

Don't let the bastards grind you down!

On the bright side, Donnie's term is 30% over!

I do agree. Ratings are the thing in media. It appears some are willing to sell their soul for it.

The anchors are following corporate demands. I no longer watch MSNBC as much because the live coverage is all about what IT said or tweeted instead of real journalism, with several exceptions.

This is the most exhausting presidency of my lifetime. I think from time to time we all need a break, and should take one without feeling guity about it. We have to preserve our mental health for the struggles ahead.

.... nauseous and sick to your stomach. Then throw your arms up in total disgust and walk away because you can not tolerate one second more.

That is tRdump's game plan - to wear you down and out - exceed your limits of tolerance - then he outlasted you and he then claims victory for his self.

It's the same thing over and over everyday

I suspect that most people are so inundated with the constant daily barrage of his oafish demeanor, the lies, his thoughtlessness, immorality, the vindictive cruelties, and impulsive outbursts, that everyone is overwhelmed and burned out. I don't want to hear him brag and boast, its a horrorshow, and I don't want to hear about his latest appalling villainy.

I, too, am at the point where I just want to tune him out to preserve my own sanity. But then I have to remind myself that Trump says he relishes creating the entropy of discord and confusion because he ends up getting his way. He has a long history of using those methods to eliminate the opposition, but he won't drive me off. So I have to force myself to take a deep breath, be calm and carry on, and watch everything he does to fortify my resolve.

Hang in there and remember it all, don't give in and let Trump win.

When we all got Clinton fatigue after hearing about Monica Lewinsky for several years, he was out the door. Trump has accelerated it, so maybe that's a good thing.
We just have to win the midterms bigly to minimize the damage as much as possible.

And movies on cable and the Premium Chanels.

But I watch the news for a bit because it doesn’t take long to catch up. Just long enough so I don’t get angry because he wants to fatigue us into giving up.

But I have the same problem you do. I just can’t stomach him or his people anymore.

We need a break from the insanity once in a while or we'll go crazy, too.

Don't have sense enough to give up watching it unfold. Soooo weary of it all.

Not only do you get a lower percentage of Trump, but also news from other parts of the world as well as in-depth feature stories. Helps keep things in perspective.

Then again, there's also taking a walk, playing a musical instrument, conversing with friends, playing a board game, spending quality time with a beloved pet, etc. We all need a break from the endless stream of breathless Trump obsession.

I want to hear news about what's going on in the rest of the world. There's lots of other issues that never get covered because the media is totally obsessed with Trump.

As for the eternal, constant repetitive talk about him, that's easy -- for those who can pass a car wreak without slowing to gawk. Turn the boob tube off. How many times every day do any of us need to hear the differences between witness, subject, and target, or what it means that Trump claims not to know of the payment to whatshername?

Newspapers and journals cover a ton of stuff that's not about him.
