Goo Goo Days In The White House As Donny Sheds Babysitters

Good Day World!

It finally happened.

After a year of going through baby-sitters, Donny has shed whatever restraints they had over him.

White House staffers are fleeing, like rats fleeing a sinking ship, amidst the chaos.

Chief babysitter, John Kelly, has gone from being a war hero to changing Donny's diapers and ignoring the stench.

The latest news from the Oval Office nursery:

The man baby looks like he's going to get his parade after all, but some brave adults have put their foot down when it comes to tanks and heavy equipment tearing up Pennsylvania Avenue.

The New Norm?

What a scary thought, Donny home alone.

He's increasing his 'executive time," that part of the day when he watches Fox and Friends, tweets crazy announcements, and passes out lies like candy to his base.

Baby Donny has everybody guessing what he's going to do, or say, daily.

From imposing insane tariffs, to announcing he's meeting with the North Korean dictator Kim - something no American president has done (for good reason) yet, he's thriving without supervision.

In Isaiah 11:6-9 of the Bible, there's a sentence referring to children leading the way to peace. Real world. Trump is not the child who will bring peace to the planet.

Chaos? Yes.

The only truthful thing baby Donny has ever said was when he promised to bring change to Washington. He brought change alright.

What was once a barely functioning Congress is now a total collection of cowards who can't (or don't want to) shed the corruption he brought to town.

But his days are numbered. 

From the Russia investigation to porn star Stormy Daniels, there's an increasing pressure on Donny's fantasy world. His friends, and family are facing increasing scrutiny over their illegal activities.

Meanwhile, Donny is sitting high in his height chair laughing at the adults!

Snap Shots of America: The Good, Bad, and the Ugly

Good Day World!

Location: Berkley, California - The Ugly

A camera follows two Trump Supporters as they go inside of a book store and confront people.

The male Trump supporter, wearing his ragged MAGA hat and an American flag draped over his shoulders, warned one of the staff that he was going to burn the book store down because no one liked Trump there.

The male and the female Trumpies leave the store when told there was a video camera recording their hateful spiel.

Hurling vile epithet's they stood outside the store for hours harassing people.

Location, The White House, Washington D.C. - The Bad

The camera follows Trump around all day, as he drops two bombshells to divert the negative narratives piling up against him.

One was enacting an ill-advised trade tariff on steel and aluminum. The other was suddenly reversing his position on North Korea, and agreeing to talk with their leader before May.

Not only would he give Kim status in the world, but also a new narrative to North Korea's allies that they're as powerful as the U.S.

The chance that the two oddball leaders actually meeting is slim. There's an awful lot to figure out before May arrives.

If they do, don't be surprised that after the first meeting negotiations break down, leaving Trump alone on an island (there's a nice thought!).

Location - The outskirts of Sepporis, Israel -The Good

The camera focuses on a paralyzed man, Amit Goffer, who reinvented the wheelchair to help people walk again.

After years of research, thousands of paraplegics and quadriplegics all over the world are using his innovative exoskeleton - ReWalk.

Warning! Too Much Competing Information Is Causing Chaos

Good Day World!

Timely news and world events have created a 24-hour cycle of chaos that can consume a person.

News travels so fast we only have time to briefly analyze it before another newsworthy event occurs.

The online mainstream media, and social media, are creating a tribal culture that feeds on sites that play to their world views.

What we have is a news overload. Real and fake news stories compete for followers in nefarious ways. They mix entertainment with real news to keep our attention focused on them.

Talking heads insult guests and start arguments for ratings. Web sites offer links to radical groups striving for attention. Truth is tossed around like a football.

I'm at the point where I have to fact check everything I read, regardless of the source. There was a time when I didn't have to do that. When people trusted the major news outlets.

As a journalist, I've watched what's happening to the credibility of the free press with a heavy heart. The public doesn't know who to believe anymore. I can't say I blame them.

So people go to the echo chambers that promote their beliefs, regardless of how inaccurate and illogical they are. It's easier than spending time researching for validity in stories.

The result is the ever-increasing chaos in our culture where everyone is polarized on every subject. Where compromise is mocked, and bullies prevail. 

Short of avoiding news programs on TV, podcasts, and the radio altogether, there's no way to clear away all the haters and lies that will muck up your day.

The same goes for reading newspapers, magazines, etc. Your choice is to be real selective, or don't even bother reading any non-fiction.

Reality is really a bummer nowadays. You'll do best, mentally, by controlling your own environment, and what you let in.
