Suggestion of the Day

At the Wall Street Journal Joseph Epstein makes what to my eye is the suggestion of the day: Trumpless Thursday:

During the rationing days of World War II, there was the weekly event called Meatless Tuesday. To save meat for the troops, civilians were asked to cut it from their diets one day each week. I don’t remember anyone complaining about it. It was considered an act of patriotism. Everyone, as far as I knew, went along with it.

With Meatless Tuesday in mind, I wonder if the country wouldn’t do well to declare Trumpless Thursday. This would entail an agreement on the part of all media—television, radio and print—not to run any items about Donald Trump, show his face on screen or in photographs on Thursday of every week. The country would be given a weekly 24-hour rest from Trump talk.

I think we could use the rest.
