I fear that I am on the verge of suffering from terminal POTUS fatigue.<\/p>\n

I don’t expect to croak from it. I don’t even know if I’ll suffer an emotional collapse, or any kind of psychological breakdown.<\/p>\n

I’m just wearing out. Maybe. Possibly.<\/p>\n

The president of the United States is conducting himself and his office in a way none of us have ever witnessed. Do you remember “No Drama Obama,” with the previous president operating on level plain? He disliked the tumult, turmoil and tempest that occasionally comes with the office.<\/p>\n

Donald John Trump Sr.? He relishes it! He looks for it! He wants to govern daily with chaos, confusion — and perhaps a bit of corruption — all swirling around him.<\/p>\n

Good grief! He goes to Europe to meet with the most dependable allies this nation on planet Earth and then proceeds to p** them all off. He wasn’t done. Not by a long shot.<\/p>\n

The president then goes to the United Kingdom, talks to the Sun newspaper, criticizes British Prime Minister Teresa May’s handling of the British exit from the European Union and then offers an endorsement of former British Foreign Minister Boris Johnson to be the UK’s next prime minister.<\/p>\n

And then he denies saying it!<\/p>\n

There’s more. He travels to Helsinki. He and Russian strongman Vladimir Putin meet for two hours, just the two of them. Then he comes out and declares that U.S. intelligence experts’ assertion about Russian attacks on our electoral process are not to be believed; he believes Putin’s denial.<\/p>\n

And this is what happened just in the past week!<\/p>\n

His entire presidency has been rife with weeks just like this, although the stakes of this week’s weirdness are getting more compelling all the time.<\/p>\n

I need to get a good night’s sleep. I’ll awaken in the morning. I’ll be refreshed. I’ll get back at it.<\/p>\n

How in the world does the president function like this?<\/p>\n\n
