Glad to know it's not just me who is sick of hearing the name Trump! I was a die-hard watcher of Rachel and Lawrence, but I quit after election night. I tried a couple of times but it's all Trump, Trump, Trump - even if it's bad it's still all about him. Good grief, the man isn't even president yet and it's Trump 24/7 on pretty much all the cable news channel.

I've even given up on CBS, ABC, & NBC. Even though they cover more things going on, they always invariably give DJT his five minutes.

Like another reader posted, when I do watch national or local news, as soon as they say his name, I mute the TV.

I've lost friends and acquaintances behind this guy because I could not and cannot wrap my head around the fact that someone I know well would actually cast a vote for a person who has absolutely no redeeming qualities whatsoever.
