25. I do try to take breaks, but I find myself wondering what's happened when I'm not keeping up.

It's a ratings game every day for that idiot. He still thinks he's running The Apprentice as opposed to being President. He'll do or say anything just to get a reaction. That scares me.

There's a video that I'll try to find of Greg Popovich, Coach of the Spurs, who talks about the people around Trump and why they are letting him behave like he does. I feel that way, too. Why aren't some of the "more normal" people making Trump at least obey protocol and the law?

Here's the link. It's not a great link, but all I could find. Starts at about the 5-minute mark. It's well worth the listen.
