It's The Watching It Tumble That Makes It Tough

Stacking and tidying a lot of something up, wiping your hands and smile as you accomplished it, then turn and accidentally hip check the stack and it all tumbles to the floor, if not breakable, you're basically back to square one in this Sisyphian task.

If breakable, all you can do is watch everything fall in slow-mo as "Hello Darkness My Old Friend" plays in your head.

Trump's remarks themselves resembled a campaign rally more than the unifying and "inclusive" celebration organizers had promised. Within minutes of taking the stage, he criticized former President Joe Biden without mentioning him by name, declaring that the United States had recently been "a dead country" before claiming it had become "the hottest country anywhere in the world."
