It can get you down. I had to detach from all electronic comms including family and friends for a week. Several deaths of friends and pets added to it. You can’t let it topple YOU. You’re the last line of defense for yourself and your loved ones. Sometime you gotta take a break...

I personally think one reason for what’s happening is that Trump is making record inroads, and receiving record favor-ability ratings, among minority voters—as they have greatly benefited from the economic conditions he has helped to foster.
The Democrats know that if Trump breaks their stranglehold over the black vote—as it appears he is in fact going to do—they become a permanent minority party. I think all this is, in part, a rather desperate effort to divert the train wreck they see happening in November.
For all of the media’s efforts to prevent it, I think this election is going to be a McGovern 1972 redux—or even better.
I too, must periodically disconnnect from media in order to breathe and function. What a world.
