(202,167 posts)I'm relieved that he came back early - there's more than enough material for an entire show each and every day!

(202,167 posts)But it's frightening and infuriating that this has gone on for so long - with more damage being perpetrated on this country each and every day. Every time we think "this has to be it!" we're distracted by something even worse - and the previous offenses become "normalized." That's why I'm grateful for our patriotic comedians! They can shout and jump up and down and show the outrage we're feeling - while the news reporters cannot.
