That's my feeling when I allow myself to think that Trump has the power he has.

I'm using a lot of distraction, limiting time watching news, doing more to stay calm, etc. But the knowledge that we are in peril is always there.

My brain pictures President Obama for about a beat. And then it corrects and I remember they mean that other guy.

It's a constant disappointment.

I am at a point I can listen to reports but as soon as his "puss" is on screen I have to change the channel. Don't even get me started on his "press conferences". The only time I can look at him is when he is Alec Baldwin.
