Obsessing over your identity feeds your ego and starves you of connections

As a result, Republicans took control of the House of Representatives and strengthened the power of Congress and the White House overall. This comes as Donald Trump nominates four more Cabinet members. He’s assembling his cabinet with the speed of a Jesus with power tools. Each one represents a part of the MAGA alliance and is either impressive or downright shocking. But such is the nature of pirate ships.

There are all kinds of things, but as long as you’re rowing in the right direction, you’re all set. Meanwhile, Trump and Biden’s meeting at the White House revealed a glee on both sides that even the harshest media could not deny. But I think Biden was happy to be able to spend time with someone who wasn’t trying to put a sheet over his head. So what causes such optimistic feelings? There is a difference between what you want and what you decide.

In 2016, Trump had many things he wanted: to become president, to have influence, and to unseat Michelle Obama. But eight years later, hope turned to decision. Not just for him, but for Americans as well. Because we decided it was time for a big change.

This should have happened four years ago, but that election was as safe as a sex swing in Chris Christie’s bedroom. It’s like the whole country is transitioning, except we’re getting the ball back. Look, we all want things, but there are times when you have to decide, “Yes, I’ll make my bed.” Yes, I’m doing push-ups. Yes, I finally got One Direction tattooed on my back with a laser and I’m selling it on eBay.

So this wasn’t just an election. It’s a transformative moment. It’s like Jackie Robinson being allowed to play in the major leagues, or women being allowed to vote, or Ilhan Omar saying “I do” to her brother. We are determined to move forward as a nation. And it means that people today will no longer blame their ancestors for their misdeeds. That would be like having my great-grandparents arrested because I was criminally good-looking.

“All options” are on the table to get Trump’s Cabinet nominees through confirmation, senators say. John Soon

The Democratic Party was thinking backwards while doing things backwards. And they got dumped, just like I did to Taylor Swift. So can you. She snores like Andre the Giant with a sinus infection. But so many people take this personally, as if it negates their entire way of thinking. Now I really want Democrats to feel good. I’m tired of seeing Rachel Maddow crying at the hardware store. And there are a lot of miserable people in the media. Imagine being so distraught that you can’t pull out your own hair. But the only way to get through it is to get out of your own head.

Forget about identity. Accept the world around you. Family, friends, and people you meet in your daily life. Let’s turn anxiety into curiosity. Instead of worrying about how tomorrow will affect you, be interested in how you will affect tomorrow. Research shows that people who focus on themselves experience more depression, while those who look outward replace that suffering with curiosity. That’s why I installed a hidden camera in the Fox and Friends bathroom. Identity politics is just a fancy word for “me.” what do i want? What is hurting my feelings?

Obsessing over your identity inflates your ego and leaves you short of valuable connections. No wonder political defeat feels like a wound. But remove the identity politics, and the ego shrinks to the frenzy of Rachel Levine, hit by a cold plunge. I mean, compare Trump supporters to their opponents, RFK, Musk, Tulsi, Rogan, Tucker, Vivek. They are all curious and adventurous types with outside interests. They surf, falcon, hunt, fly fish, and leave bear carcasses in Central Park.

But they don’t have time for self-obsession. They literally don’t think about themselves. He’s not like the famous Never Trumpers like Kinzinger, Cheney, and Morning Joe, who all sported tattoos of their scarred egos on their foreheads. Gerald went so crazy that the state protected his mustache. Watch the most rambling rants on cable TV.

So talk about your heartbreak. Because their anger is rooted in identity. But we are different. Even if my man loses, even if he loses, my life goes on. The next day I wake up and get dressed as usual…by a team of Slovak immigrants.
