| | I was feeling better today. I decided to do 3 loops. Saw some of the regular faces. Very few people are wearing masks, but some are. That's good. I haven't shaved since the lockdown started. That's my mask.
What was on my mind today while I was running? Well, this morning one of my friends posted something on my wall again of Facebook. He was a former client of mine that friended me. Recently he's been saying a lot of anti-Trump stuff. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, but he lives here in AZ where most people are conservative and Trump supporters. This includes me. Of course I don't like everything he does, nor everything he has done. But I have never seen a President try and fulfill his campaign promises to the extent that Trump has. It's not even close. So I called my friend out on it once. I said, "Look. We're not all bad people. I really like it better when you don't post anti-Trump stuff, but that's all you post about lately." Something like that. So, his response was to start posting stuff on my wall. He really can't stand our President. I get it. I couldn't stand Obama. But I keep my mouth shut most of the time. I think Trump has done more good that he has bad, but if you don't like him, all you see is the bad. If you do like him, all you see is the good. I'd like to think I see both. They say Trump has divided the country. I say it's the media. But that may be Trump's fault. When Trump called CNN fake news, they literally declared war on him. So every time they report on him, it's that he's a racist, homophobe, xenophobe, etc. It's shameful, but he kind of asked for it. Anyway, that's what was going through my mind. Made the time go by faster which is what I need when I'm so slow nowadays.
