On the other hand, if one’s reasoning was, “A fried egg on toast is better than Hillary Clinton,” then one can face each day’s events with a shrug, observing, “Yep, still better than Hillary Clinton.”

I can have nothing for breakfast and say “Yep, still better than Hillary Clinton.” Even on the darkest days, that thought still brightens my outlook.
