Trump may be merely tired, the American people are truly exhausted."

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

This Trump habit is a perfect reflection of the nation he's created: analyst

Chauncey DeVega wrote that while Trump may be tired and falling asleep in meetings, the public is "exhausted" with administrative shortcomings that have sunk the president's approval rating. Writing in Salon, DeVega compared the sleeping president to the hardships of the American people.


He wrote, "Like his predecessors, he [Trump] embodies the fears, hopes and collective mood of the nation. He is clearly tired. In that way, he is a mirror for the American people. But while Trump may be merely tired, the American people are truly exhausted."

Vega would go on to suggest this exhaustion is an active plan from the administration, rather than an accident which is hindering the public. He continued, "Since he returned to office in January, Trump has used a “shock and awe” strategy to undermine American democracy and society.

"A core element of this plan is to leave the public confused, disoriented, overwhelmed and exhausted, which his administration has done to great effect.

1. I disagree,

I think its left the majority of the country angry at the ineptitude and outright lawlessness of this rogue admin. and we're actually starting to see real push back.

2. I have to admit that I'm starting to feel worn out. I used to get angry. Now, not so much.

Partly because it's what I expect from them and partly because I'm getting tired. The "ups" are too few and far apart. I won't give up, but I'm not where I was a year ago.

3. You and me both.

I know we shouldn't give in. I know we need to rally, and to push back, as MCE said above.

But I'm so fucking tired. And discouraged.

4. Rage and helplessness add to the exhaustion.

It's a daily cycle. Hell, hourly at times.

5. Yep. That's exactly how I feel.

Overwhelmed and exhausted.

6. This "core element" is right out of Putins playbook
