The smartest thing Trump can do is announce he is not going to run for reelection.

And make it totally clear that he will be a one term president. Trump really does not like the job. The constant analysis of everything he says and does. The constant coverage by the press and the criticism. By announcing this as soon as possible, he could save the country from worry and concern about his "next term." It would also settle down the world knowing it will be over sooner than expected. Possibly save the republican party by giving someone else a chance. He could do what he wants to do after this term is over, and he would be respected for deciding he wants to be a "one term president" That decision would help everyone and would be welcomed by everyone. (including Trump's family)

Why the internet is addictive. And I am an internet addict. My thoughts.

... I am not an expert, but this is my experience. I get on the computer, and I cannot stop. I go from this site to that site, get some information, feel good that I learned a little, and go to another site for the same experience. Sometimes, I go to my email, (I have 2 emails) open them up, read the new emails, and then move on. So, I move from email, to financial stuff, to this site and to that site.
... I enjoy getting new information about whatever I crave information on. (and that is a whole lot) I used to go to the library for this kind of info. But now the library is the internet. Further, and this is my experience, DU is a library of all kinds of current and not so current information. I can repeat the process at DU and never leave the site, since there are so many different sites for information right here on Democratic Underground. (these places are called topics, and I can get subscriptions to different kind of "topics" from Comic Books to Rural and Farm Life and to this or to that. (not a criticism, just an observation).
... It is extremely addictive and dangerous for me. I have had some health problems, and sitting for long periods of time, is not good for me. I need to get up, do this or that, and then sit down for a while. And, I am lucky that I can indeed get up and do this or that, and then sit down again. And I am grateful that I can do this.
... But I love the feeling that I get from bouncing around the internet from here to there, and I get new information all of the time. I suspect, (no, I do not know) that bouncing around the internet is very similar to gambling. I get some info on this or that, feel good and repeat the action, over and over and over and over and over and over. And it is basically free. Sure, there is a monthly charge, but that is not a whole lot.
..Yes, I can go to the library, and sit for free. (at the local library I can go and sit for free with other people who are using the internet. Yes, there is a time limit, but usually there are a lot of computers for this kind of use, and I can get more time in many ways..)
....I got a timer next to the computer, and try to measure the time, but it doesn't seem to work. I over stay my time. Why? I love the information gathering experience. Sometimes, I can go to You Tube and be entertained, and the story repeats itself over and over and over and over. (Lots of stuff at You Tube too) Oh, I forgot, there are games of all types on the internet. I like card games that I can play with myself, and I play them over and over and over. (my favorite currently is something called, "Spider Solitaire) The computer keeps track of my wins and loses, and tells me the total of how many games I have played. And guess what? The addiction repeats again, over and over and over and over just playing this game.. (I like to win this game, although I win rarely)
.... What to do?...I know what to do, and I don't want to do it. (sound familiar?) This particular topic place is Addiction & Recovery, so I thought I would share this problem with people who might have information on certain types of ....."addiction." If you got this far, thank you for reading this. And, I would greatly appreciate any ideas of any kind on this subject.

..........Thank You Again,
