    Newsmax… I swear it’s all they ever play on TV at work. I got to the point where I’ll wait till no one’s around before I change the channel and hide the remotes.

    Side note, get yourself a universal remote so you can change the channel on TVs in public spaces like gyms and waiting rooms.

        Actually learned that trick from a gym rat friend who said to me “I’m here to get a pump. Not a hate boner.”

    Amen.

    I would also add to stop reading articles with hyperbole and only read about trump if it effects you or your community. The more we give him air time, the more we give him power. If the news outlets don’t make money through him, then they might stop promoting his bullshit.

    I’ve not forgotten that a NYT reporter was asked during the first term if he would prefer Obama or trump and he said trump because it got him so much better clicks. (paraphrased). I’m over it.
