#45: DAY TWO IN REVIEW:FOR WHAT ITS WORTH

Imagine you are a political leader waking up only to find "millions" of people, mostly women, protesting against you. Not just in one city, and not just in your own country, but rather protesting worldwide. AND it's only DAY TWO of your administration. Not particularly a good morning I would think unless that is what you wished to accomplish.
To quote STEPHEN STILLS:There's something happening here, But what it is ain't exactly clear " So you're up early and throw on the news, split screen a few channels, and view this protesting phenomena with your first cup of coffee.An interview here with one mother supposedly setting an example by bringing her daughter along, then a retired female educator who is appalled by things you said during the campaign and afraid that you will follow through on some if not all, Pro-choicers, a few celebrities and a couple of opposing party politicians throw in. Mostly all carrying signs. What a field day for the heat,A thousand people in the street,Singing songs and carrying signs, Mostly saying, "hooray for our side" 
This march sought to call attention to a host of issues, yes, and singularly showed exactly what a protest should be, No looting, no burning, and only a few arrests. America is great again. Not like the day before when those thugs destroyed property, etc, all probably pawns of the previous administration, I bet.

Turn the TV off and peruse the dailies.There you are corrected by the misguided reporters critiquing on things you said the previous day, weeks and months. Fact checking you to the Nth degree.How dare they. I am the leader of the free world and I do NOT get questioned, you think. So what if you misjudged the size of the crowd at your inauguration, so what if it wasn't as well attended as either of your recent predecessor's, and the media IS responsible for your feud with the CIA who today you have their  back, well at least your persona does; "THERE IS NOBODY THAT FEELS STRONGER ABOUT OUR INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY AND CIA THAN DONALD TRUMP". (I get nervous when folks refer to themselves in the third person).

Putting down The Times, et.al, you go online to view the "alternative" news and blogs. What a morning! Can this get any better?. Even those guys are name calling you. BLOTUS: Biggest Liar of the United States, WOW, what a great title. And CHEATER CHEETO, a new one referring to your "orangeness". Satisfied you single handedly disrupted the apple cart, you rest, awaiting to actually take over on Monday as you planned. You look up and pray silently, "Thank you Lord for this great weekend".
