It's critical that everyone understands that a man who dines only on McDonald's finest cuisine, lies in bed gobbling up Fox news while curled up in the fetal position tweeting, wallowing in self-pity, adding to his enemies list second by second, and then, having the majority of the country reject him and calling him a LOSER, would push him over the edge.
Face it. If this were your daily lifestyle, exactly how healthy do you think you'd be? Especially if you were in your 70s?
Here's my non-medical guess regarding someone/anyone in that position. That person would be totally insane, and perhaps on the verge of a stroke/heart attack/death.
Unfortunately, that mentally incapacitated person, Trump, still controls the levers of power of America. And even worse is that the majority of the Republican Party, while secretly hoping for the death of this prick, is proclaiming that their "fuhrer" of the moment was cheated out of his "election win."
Many sane people worldwide wonder if Trump and the Republicans will destroy America. It's something we should all be worried about every second of every day.
Soon, Trump will be gone, either to a new TV hate show, or to ... Moscow? But today's Republican Party will still be here. And they represent Trumpism. It's past time for all of us to recognize that the Republican Party is the biggest threat to our democracy and our freedoms.

Trump has made hatred fashionable to his minions. Let's not fall into that trap of self-destruction. Everyone has a way of coping and now is the time to fully use it.
