Trump, more than 1400 days...
It is daunting to think that we have more than 1400 days left for Trump to seek attention. Some seem to think that what is going on now with the new administration is due to the transition and everything that is required. The view here is that Donald Trump will look for attention getting opportunities each day and every day for the next four years.
He is addicted to hyperbole. Everything that existed before him is a "disaster" and anything that he wants to change will be "totally destroyed". He will "do a number" on Dodd Frank. The disease is apparently contagious as Nikki Haley will "take names" at the U.N. At the National Prayer Breakfast this morning he chose to talk about his great ratings on "Celebrity Apprentice" as compared to Arnold Schwarzenegger's "weak" ratings now. He is addicted to bragging about himself, at a church sponsored celebration of prayer?
The media is trying hard to treat Trump normally. In particular the cable news networks have added inexperienced panelists that are Trump supporters or apologists to almost every program. Newspapers and television would like to think that the chronic lying and the attacks on our allies are just something that he needs to be weaned from as he puts the campaign in the rear view mirror. That is not going to happen.
In the true spirit of this morning's breakfast, should we pray for this incredibly needy, delusional, and isolated man who the voters chose to be Commander in Chief. Or should we pray for ourselves?
