ARTICLE: Trump has made Americans confused, scared and exhausted

https://www.alternet.org/2020/06/trump-has-made-americans-confused-scared-and-exhausted/

Snip of article:

As of June 1st, the fact-checkers at the Washington Post say that Trump has told more than 19,000 lies over the last three and a half years. Following publication of that number they wrote that false claims and disinformation are the central feature of Trump’s presidency.

Naomi Klein was correct when she said Fascism is exhausting.

Having had a relationship with a person with NPD I can vouch for the constant crazy making. The walking on eggshells, the temper tantrums, the accusations, the lying, the nonstop need for ego gratification.

It was exhausting.

trump is causing us all to be sick. Sick of him. Sick from him. Sick of it!

Imagine how totally exhausting it is for those in his immediate orbit. I am shocked more people don't breakaway and say fuck this noise. I guess they want money and power more.

I know I couldn't take it.

I can barely take it now!
