Tuesdays With Moron

With Donald Trump it's a problem not to spend too much time in his thrall, worrying about his ability to obliterate the world with his carelessness and stupidity. It would be wonderful if the reverse were true, that he was a quiet example of rectitude, moral excellence and emotional stability, deserving more attention than he would normally get because of his humility and obscurity. 

I'm trying, in my own life, to institute a rule of "Tuesdays with Moron" to limit my exposure to Trump and the corrosive and demoralizing effects of following his daily assaults on decency and his failure to meet entry level standards of humanity. I will follow Trump only on Tuesdays and avoid any news regarding him on every other day which means avoiding the news entirely except on Tuesdays.
