Famously Put-Upon but Stoic President Finally Breaks His Selfless Silence And Dribbles a Single Heroic Tear For How Badly He's Been Treated

You think you've got it bad? Out of work for two years, pulling your hair out about how you're going to keep it all together?

Stop crying for yourself, and shed a tear for our Man of Iron president, who has endured so much heartache, adversity, and setback in his life.

"At times he couldn't help feeling, as he told one associate, a kinship with the protagonist in Ernest Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea," writes David Corn in his new book on the presidency.

"He had, against tremendous odds, caught a big fish, but on the long voyage back to shore, his prized catch had been picked to pieces by sharks," Corn writes.
