We need a Trump holiday. A national day where we don't talk about Trump at all.

A day where we completely ignore his tweets. Trump is taking up too much space in our lives. Every segment on every MSNBC show is about Trump. Every joke, every topic of discussion on Real Time and Samantha Bee's show is about Trump. The first skits on SNL are Trump skits. Even on the day of the Superbowl, Trump made news with his "killers" comment.

Can we just have one day without Trump? Just one day where we're not 100% focused on him and his every word. To quote Madonna"

If we took a holiday
Took some time to celebrate
Just one day out of life
It would be
It would be so nice
Everybody spread the word
We're gonna have a celebration
All across the world
In every nation
It's time for the good times
Forget about the bad times
One day to come together
To release the pressure
We need a holiday
If we took a holiday
Took some time to celebrate
Just one day out of life
It would be
It would be so nice

We're in the fight of a lifetime, and this would-be dictator has to be resisted with all we've got, 24/7.

Granted, the next day we'll have to get to business as to how we'll deal with President Pence, but the day Donald Trump is no longer in office it is going to be a really good day indeed.
