Trumpism will last forever
Posted: Sat Feb 25, 2023 6:19 am
Before the Trump-Clinton election I got tired of listening to Trump and news about him. I looked forward to the end of the election that Trump should lose, never to be heard from again. Much to my surprise and dismay Trump won, and the news media was continually filled with news about him. He didn’t seem to mind if it was flattering or unpleasant news, just so long as it was about him and not others. After he lost the next election I once again looked forward to the end of news about him. I was dismayed to find that most of the news continued to be about him and his foibles. The guy just sells a lot of printed and electronic media. He’s getting rather old, and is out of shape and angers easily, so he shouldn’t last much longer, but I’m afraid he’ll still dominate the news when he’s gone even if it is almost all about the legal troubles he will continue to suffer. I read only the headlines of stories containing his name now, but my one-man campaign to remove him from the public’s interest is hopeless. I guess he has won in the long range.
