Exhaustion

The essay

The Administration has launched a flood of lies, crimes, inanity, danger, and cruelty usually reserved for prestige television series. It’s a nightmarish tsunami of manufactured crisis, stupid decisions, and desperate distractions all aimed at creating an authoritarian regime of kleptocrats and pedophile protectors. It is, in a word, exhausting.

Exhaustion points out that the one thing everyone outside of the Trump Cabal and Crime Syndicate© can agree on is that we need a break. Unfortunately, that seems unlikely. Trump’s reservoir of mayhem would make the Allstate commercial character retire in defeat and shame.
