Presidential Firsts 5/15/23

The next presidential election is shaping up to be a Biden/Trump rematch. Both options leave much to be desired, and Bernie Sanders has already announced that he will not run again.

Trump Indicted 4/2/23

Trump is not guilty, at least not yet. To be indicted means that there seems to be sufficient evidence to procure a guilty verdict, but that is different from being found guilty.

Responsibility 3/21/23

Actions should speak louder than words, and anybody who has voted Republican because they claim to be all about “law and order” should be taking note of their calls for violence.

Trump Indictment 3/1/23

political grandstanding by the Democrats is working, and far better than is likely if Trump is ever actually charged with crimes. There are political reasons to keep Trump in the spotlight for both parties, and liabilities to the Democratic party to actually bring charges forth.

The Shame 8/10/22

Now, he is (to the best of my knowledge) the first former US president to be so deeply embroiled in criminal investigations over his actions while in office that his residence has been legally searched.

The Show 6/8/22

the decision to go public with this information has turned the entire investigation into a political game show. If, indeed, their evidence is as strong as they are saying, it should be used in the courts to bring charges, the only way to get justice in our Constitution.

Art Linkletter 12/1/21

I had two of his books, and they were among my favorite with hilarious comments from children. Every time I read them, I couldn’t help but think of the tragic pathway he took that led him to such a project. And I think of the similarities in the stories of the history of the ancient Spanish Inquisition, and recent political history.

Childish 10/21/21

So many childish things are such great cardiovascular exercise. Jump rope, hula hooping, and even skipping will get your heart rate up and give you a very nice quick little exercise, but as adults we won’t do it out of fear of the harm it can do to our reputation. But you know what? Who cares?

Trump 8/14/21

Donald Trump is a traitor in my opinion. Yes, I mean that literally, and yes, I fear for what he is trying to do.

Republican Hypocrisy 5/13/21

I find it hard to understand how anybody can still align themselves with the Republican party and still claim to be pro-American.
