    We could've prevented this by having a security clearance performed on anyone running for President/Vice President. If we are giving this person the key to the one office that has all our security information, that person should be investigated just like anyone else in all the other high security offices.

      Trump has NPD: Narcissistic Personality Disorder - my mother and father do as well. People with NPD absolutely LOVE to watch TV, and they will watch it for hours and hours if they can. People with NPD also do not sleep much - maybe 3 hours at night, and they'll doze off during the day (they don't usually take naps though). So, I'll bet Trump had the TV on 24/7 - falling asleep with it on, and watching it even in meetings.

      @@danmcgriff1421 "President Trump spends at least four hours a day watching television, according to a new report.
      People close to Trump told The New York Times that Trump spends at least that much time in front of a TV each day, and sometimes spends as many as eight hours watching television.
      The Times reports that Trump begins each day around 5:30 a.m. by turning on CNN before quickly flipping to Fox News’s “Fox & Friends.” He occasionally watches MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” because it works him up, Trump’s friends told the Times.
      {mosads}
      Trump’s favorite programs include “Fox & Friends” as well as Fox News primetime shows from Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham and Jeanine Pirro. Trump sometimes “hate-watches” CNN host Don Lemon, according to the report.
      The Times also reports that the only people allowed to touch the remote control for the White House television are Trump and White House technical support staffers.
      During his trip to Asia last month, Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One that he doesn’t watch much television at the White House because he’s busy “reading documents.”
      “Believe it or not, even when I’m in Washington or New York, I do not watch much television,” Trump said. “People that don’t know me, they like to say I watch television - people with fake sources. You know, fake reporters, fake sources.”
      “But I don’t get to watch much television. Primarily because of documents. I’m reading documents. A lot,” Trump continued. “I actually read much more - I read you people much more than I watch television.”
      The Times reports that Trump told reporters about his TV-watching habits after the newspaper presented the White House with a long list of fact-checking questions, including one about how often he watches television.
      The Hill
      Donald Trump once said he didn't have enough time to watch television.
      Donald Trump on Thursday said he had watched more than seven hours of Fox News programming since Wednesday night, listing off the prime-time shows he tuned in to on the right-wing propaganda network.
      "I watched Liz MacDonald - she's fantastic. I watched Fox Business. I watched Lou Dobbs last night, Sean Hannity last night, Tucker last night, Laura. I watched 'Fox & Friends' in the morning," Trump said at a news conference from the White House, referencing Fox's prime-time line-up as well as its three-hour-long morning show. Trump's constant watching of Fox News - and repeating of its talking points - is well known.
      He often tweets about things he sees on the cable network, and the network often parrots Trump's messaging.
      For example, Trump and his campaign have continued to falsely claim Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden has been hiding in his basement, a claim various personalities on Fox News made 322 times in the span of just two months.
      However, Trump has publicly said numerous times that he doesn't watch a lot of television because he doesn't have time.
      "Believe it or not, even when I'm in Washington or New York, I do not watch much television," Trump said in November 2017. "People that don't know me, they like to say I watch television - people with fake sources. You know, fake reporters, fake sources."
      In December 2017, Trump tweeted: "Another false story, this time in the Failing @nytimes, that I watch 4-8 hours of television a day - Wrong! Also, I seldom, if ever, watch CNN or MSNBC, both of which I consider Fake News. I never watch Don Lemon, who I once called the 'dumbest man on television!' Bad Reporting."
      He made the claim that he doesn't really watch TV in an interview with the New York Times in July.
      "I don't watch very much TV. Nobody knows what I do," Trump said. "I work very long hours, actually, very long hours, probably longer than just about anybody. And I think more importantly, I think I work effectively."

The GREEN new deal is a mirage a pipe dream if you are for the new deal LOOK at yourself ...... are you? part of the solution or part of the Problem if you use any fossil fuels YOU are part of the Problem and you have no argument. We are too worried about Nonsense non issues, and about peoples Feelings We should all have the same feeling right now and should be thinking What the Hell is going on. You are chanting for vilification for that waste of time protest labeled the Jan. 6th "Insurrection" One Murder on that day ...an Unarmed Woman protester shot in the neck by a Fed Cop and We are JAILING Policemen for shooting Criminals with lengthy history...Come on man Trump is gone you cheated him out, just trying to Defame him.
