I'm resigned to the fact that looking to the mainstream media for truth is like looking to a prostitute for love. That's no longer what the profession is about. They're propagandists.

I went from “mueller is gonna get him I’m so frickin excited” to “oh this is complete bullshit I was duped now I’m pissed” in 2 years. How many of y’all are out there?

I became the at-home care giver for my elderly demented mother at the beginning of 2017.

She was a life-long Democrat who only watched MSNBC and old movies.

So I saw a lot of it and figured that with all those guns pointed at him, they'd find "crimes" and thus might be able to force a resignation.

And yeah, I was rooting for that.

In general, I don't get angry watching them. They harp on stories against the Republicans the same way Fox does to Democrats (whose headlines I follow at the gym).

That dialectic is like a malign form of Yin/Yang, each creating and necessitating the other, but it serves its purpose; each side shows that the other is unfit to govern.

Republicans and Democrats are both unfit to govern. They are loyal to party over country. They are all traitors.

Yes, they put tribe first over their constituents. But mostly, they are loyal to their donors.
