> Do stoics worry about Trump? I don't think he cares, so in that sense Trump is stoic w.r.t. stoics. Seriously tho, I couldn't sleep on Election at the thought of all the hateful, racist, anti-immigrant rhetoric that put him in office. The next day, I felt physically ill and that's when my Dad told me "Beta (son), stop worrying about sh_t that you have no control over. Just ride out the next 8 years* , stop watching news and stop reacting and arguing about it, because all said and done, he was DEMOCRATICALLY Elected into Office by a Majority of Voters who got off their butts and cast their vote." * 8 years = My dad believes that Trump, like Dubya, will get re-elected no matter how bad his Presidency is, because in his own words "When a White Republican President sh*ts, People call it Honey"
