If you want to read about Trump, whose presidency is a hideous tapestry of hubris and stupidity, read my column in the Voice.</description>

		<description>Dear Catherine

Dithering on about Hillary Clinton is a waste of space in the VV.  Stop it.  Supporters of Mr. Trump should celebrate, he is president and this country is stuck with him.  Raise your arms and dance around the dinner table.   Every decision he makes, every political appointment he fills, every executive order he signs, and every fake news comment he tweets belongs to this country.  He is an embarrassment but unfortunately he is our embarrassment.  In a time of war, his “presidential aides” could be guilty of treason (especially his former air force general) for consorting with the enemy (Russian operatives).  But apparently the VV thinks that is fine.  Silence speaks for itself.

And it’s wonderful the VV is so pleased by Congressman Nunes (a member of the president’s transition team – choosing staff and making executive decisions), but when the decisions are poor or worse what do you have to say?  It’s nice that you’re happy with the republicans and the new president, but is that it?   How do you feel about the National Security Advisor he chose, Retired Air Force Lt. General Michael Flynn?    Would you discuss “alternative facts” – whatever those are (ask Kellyann Conway to explain).   What are your thought on ICE rounding up illegals and deporting them?   It’s tough being relevant but give it a try.

Hillary is history and stories about her getting the “old band back together” for the next election are silly.  Her time is past.  This country just needs to survive 4 years without a disaster.  Do you think the Donald will be impeached?  Some people think about such things.

So long for now.
