Come back Obama, Bush, Clinton, anyone!

Aren't you already fed up with Donald Trump? He's so full of himself, so sure he's right, so determined to upset everyone, so unaware of people's feelings, so intent on bullying the judiciary into authorising his scary policies. I'm fed up with his constant tweets, not even well written, often in capital letters, always the sign of a madman. Like everyone else, I want peace and love and humanity and generosity and magnanimity and kindness. Ok, that's not the way the world works unfortunately, but it's still true that if the leader of the free world, who happens to be the president of the United States, is even half a decent guy, or gel,  then the rest of us mortals feel a lot better and more hopeful for the future. Right now, there are no good feelings around. Trump wants to tear up the climate-change agreement, which would be a disaster for mankind, he has at least one person advising him (Stephen Bannon) who is already thinking ahead of war between the US and China, he hates the nuclear deal with Iran, but, seriously, what is the alternative, and he couldn't care a stuff about Europe.I don't want to see any more pictures of Trump doing his thumbs-up as he comes down the steps from Air Force One. Who's he doing thumbs up to? By all accounts Trump spends his evenings in the White House alone and watching cable television, no doubt shouting at CNN when he sees a news report he disagrees with or objects to. His wife stays at Trump Tower in New York. I don't blame her. Have we really got four years of Trumpism?
