Outside of the major media centers of New York, California and the District of Columbia, President Trump won the popular vote in the rest of the country by more than 2 million votes. Yet, since the election, the Trump voters have suffered a constant drumbeat of negative press. The media elites want him out and are doing everything they can to undermine him, basing their stories on innuendo and unnamed sources.

A Harvard University study reports that 80% of the news reporting on Trump since the election has been negative. On CNN, NBC and CBS it has been even worse with over 90% of the stories negative. Watching this constant barrage of negative Trump stories on the network news could be damaging to your health. You might be suffering from Political Information Stress Syndrome (PISS).

PISS can be identified by the following symptoms: Constant channel surfing hoping to find a positive Trump story, turning the TV off in the middle of the news, or after seeing the news, a severe headache, over eating, over drinking, indigestion and bouts of vomiting. Severe cases could include: Yelling at your spouse or dog, losing friends, throwing things at the TV, nail biting, shortness of breath and, if suffering through a whole newscast, chest pains. You might also have a sudden urge to go to bed early and hide under the covers.

If you are suffering from PISS, try turning off the news and turn on an old movie like "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington" where you can see an intelligent, civilized debate. Turn on FOX NEWS and watch Tucker Carlson intelligently lead a discussion based on facts.

If none of this works try yelling piss-off at your TV and begin a soft, hypnotizing chant of piss off, piss off.

This will not change the negative reporting by millionaire news anchors that want Trump out. It might alleviate the pain….or better still, do as my wife does, watch Seinfeld reruns during the news hours.
