The Trump Show is Over

The thing that made me happiest about the prospect of electing Harris President was the idea that I’d never have to see or hear Donald Trump again. In the run up to the election–from the midterms on–I’d been completely awash in political content–watching cable news, listening to podcasts, watching content creators on YouTube. It was 24-7 politics. And if you’re talking politics, you’re necessarily talking about whatever insane idiocy Trump is up to, from sleeping in court to dressing up like a sanitation worker. And while rubbernecking a car wreck can be sick fun, it’s also exhausting.

So when Harris lost the election, it occurred to me that the Trump Show can be over no matter who occupies the White House. That’s still in my hands. That’s still in our hands. I’m not saying we can remain completely ignorant (although that seems to work well for broad swaths of the country), but we don’t need to watch cable news, we don’t need to tune in for Trump’s every utterance and gassy emission, and we don’t need to watch the freak show. We can be a haven for the vulnerable people in our community and tune out everything else. Because everything else is bullshit. And in the attention economy Trump can still lose.

EDIT: This extends to the entire MAGA cinematic universe, too…from the hive of scum and villainy that are his family, friends, cabinet members, and hangers on, on down to his millions of awful voters. Let these cretins scream into the void.
