Too much of a good thing

It’s a proverb about moderation and a beginning point for discussions on excess, balance, and finding the right amount in life.

I write this because I have backed President Trump’s policies. But I don’t back his excess of self-aggrandizement and wanting to brand everything “Trump” as he did with his buildings and golf clubs.

  • Arc de Trump

  • Trump, Kennedy Center

  • Donald J. Trump Institute of Peace

  • “Trump class”. Battleships

  • Trump $1 coins to celebrate the 250th anniversary of American Independence.

  • Trump gold card, a new immigration visa program.

  • US Air Force's new fighter jet F-47

  • The Donald J. Trump ballroom

  • Trump watches

  • This is unprecedented in US history.

  • Only after you have left office, when others propose adding your name to monuments, etc., is it appropriate.

  • It’s like seeing the same commercials over and over again until they turn you off.

It’s too much of a good thing!
