I spend way too much damn time writing and podcasting about Donald Trump.
I generally don’t mind it. He does give a political humor writer and podcaster a lot of new material to make fun of him about. But at times, it can take a toll on my mental health. Add something huge like the Charlie Kirk controversy, and it feels like all I do is chase down negative stories.
It can be a lot. I get tired of feeling obligated to only write about the fucked-up state of our country.
In today’s podcast episode, I talk about my constant back-and-forth conflicting feelings about this. Though I can’t see myself quitting political writing anytime soon, I sure feel like doing that sometimes. It would be wonderful to write about funny shit, mental health, relationships, and parenting more often than I do. But I just can’t let go of my responsibilities of having to report the truth about the corrupt, criminal Trump regime.
Perhaps, once he’s removed from power or passes on, I’ll be free from feeling like this. I want good things for this world. I feel that I can effect change. And that our country needs the strong, unafraid, Mouthy voices of independent journalists now more than ever.
Thank you for giving this a listen. I appreciate you lending me your ears. We can end Traitor Trump’s nightmarish grip on America, together. Let’s do this thing.
If you enjoy my daily podcast episodes, I’d love to have your support. It’s less than $5 monthly to support independent journalism, and I’d be honored to have you join our Mouthy Militia!
