14. Transport your mind back in time, prior to 2015, and Trump waddling down the escalator...

...and ask yourself how you'd feel about the president's handlers building a $400 million ballroom that included an underground bunker and A FULL "MEDICAL CENTER" after bulldozing the East Wing.

We "processed" that move in a way that we only could after surviving one unrelenting Trump travesty after another.

But "the party that wants to gut Medicare and Medicaid" is BUILDING A FULL "MEDICAL CENTER" ON WHITE HOUSE GROUNDS, FOR TRUMP.

Americans should be losing their minds right now. Except (and obviously, I am not talking about DU) America has gone numb, which is what Trump has wanted all along. He wanted America too numb and punch-drunk to fight back.

Hopefully that will wear off between now and November. I am not 100% convinced that it will, but I am not succumbing to negativity and pessimism and thinking that it WON'T.

That's why I write, 7 days a week. It's in the hope that someone sitting on the fence will read it and go "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH" and VOTE.
