UNSUBSCRIBE TO BIDEN & TRUMP

My emails have been piling up incrementally during this pandemic.  I used to get about 10 a day, but lately, it’s been closer to 100.  Not being too tech savvy, I tried to unsubscribe the hard way: by slowly opening the email on my desktop, then searching  the fine print that lets me unsubscribe. Very time consuming.  Just found out that my smart phone makes it much easier.  Most of these spam emails on my  iphone have a bright blue UNSUSCRIBE link at the bottom.  One quick click, and the pesky ads from clothing and insurance companies vanish, and don’t return.  Now. I wish to unsubscribe to any news flash coming across the screen that contains the name  Biden or  Trump.

i WISH I COULD UNSUBSCRIBE TO BIDEN & TRUMP. THEY'RE OLD NEWS.
I wish I could UNSUBSCRIBE TO BIDEN AND TRUMP. I’m sick of seeing them on social media.

There was a time when I was actually interested in hearing about what those two were saying or doing.  That was way back before the pandemic began.  Everyone  either hated Trump and loved Biden, or vise versa.  You had to stay on your toes to defend your president of choice whenever the subject came up—which was often.  But the truth is, nobody really cares  anymore.

Trump rants and raves, but his base is dwindling and you pretty much know what he’s going to say.  Biden only got elected because of Trump’s handling of the Covid Crisis.   Just about any of the more viable Democratic candidates could have won.  Biden’s  made  mistakes and he’s not getting any younger.  You get the feeling the country is being run by a bunch of suits in a back room who are telling him what to say and when.

So, what I’d like to do is block anything coming across my newsfeed or email that has the name Biden or Trump in it. That would probably cut down of at least 50% of my spam e mail and Iphone news flashes. .  But where would I find out what’s going on?  How could I keep up with current events?  Probably, the old fashioned way.  By reading newspapers and magazines,  I could go back over any  story and sort out fact from opinion..  Most big city newspapers are pretty liberal,   And you know that certain magazines are predictably conservative.   But at least you can cut through the chaff and figure out for yourself what’s going on without relying on Twitter and AOL.

I wish I could unsubscribe to Biden and Trump.  But I can’t.
