The Human Comedy Isn't Funny

Everyone I know is busy yapping about impeachment and Bernie vs. Warren, but I'm in my own private hell. Trump in or Trump out, I still have to paint my bedroom. We've narrowed it down to Rami, Birdseye Maple or Shiitake, but honestly I'm not wild about any of them. Don't laugh -- the color of my bedroom walls is much more of a problem to me than what happens on Capitol Hill. (Those walls will definitely be around a lot longer than the current political uproar.)

I also care more about the spreading Chinese Wuhan virus morphing into a menace that may threaten the globe if left unchecked. And about people everywhere going crazy: A guy in Southern California admitted to purposely ramming his car into a Prius carrying six teenage boys. It hit a tree and three of the boys died. (A climate-change denier after the Prius?) Another guy in Kansas City, Missouri shot up a line of people waiting to get inside a bar. Final tally: One dead, 15 injured.

There's so much more. Somewhere a child has just been diagnosed with cancer. Thousands are hungry. Barefoot orphans wander the streets of war-ravaged cities, in search of love and nurturing. Animals are being burned alive in Australia's fires. And still Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer and that hideous comedy team of Nadler & Schiff think if they could just kick Trump out of office, everything would be great.

I guess if you look at it in a certain light, that is funny.

Love him or hate him, you've got to admit that the return of Donald Trump to the White House is pretty amazing, all the more so because ...
