(141 posts)It doesn't really matter if I watch it or not. There is not some survallance van tracking me to see what station I'm tuned into.

Cracklin Charlie
(12,904 posts)The terrible ratings alone should drive him up the wall.
As for watching any of it, I couldn't do it if he paid me. I can't stand his, or any of those people's (his family, campaign people, or appointees) face.
A story about my dad, a survivor of the Bataan Death March, and a Japanese prison camp:
When I was younger, from time to time, a story would come on the teevee that mentioned General Douglas MacArthur. My dad would immediately get that channel switched. He could not look at General MacArthur. Sometimes an actor would be playing MacArthur, not even the real MacArthur, like on MASH...channel switched.
He couldn't deal with thinking about that man.
I feel the same way about Trump.

(24,923 posts)I can't stomach even looking at this creep, let alone listening to him. Besides, I don't want to give my cats a heart attack!
I'd rather have the rest of my teeth extracted--without novocaine--than listen to one more word from Agent Orange from anywhere other than a prison cell!

I further vow never, EVER, to use the title president when referring to him.
I will only ever call him DFT - Donald Fucking Trump.

(12,448 posts)I remember the eager anticipation I had for the Obama inaugurations, particularly the first. I was working as a salesperson in a furniture store for the first one, and my boss covered for me while I watched the it on the big TV the store had.
I'd rather chew razor blades than watch Dump be sworn in. He will never be my president.
