Playing hard ball with Iran over their oil exports.
2020
I don’t think the Dems have come up with a single candidate who could come even close to beating Trump in 2020. And the Russian collusion farce is going to backfire on them big time. Plus, they represent open borders and higher taxes — both losing positions.
Ignore Insults on Social Media
Those people who get riled by insults on social media have fragile egos. And then they engage in some kind of rant as a response. And if they “win” the angry exchange, what exactly have they won?
It’s an exhibition of pointless anger when anger is a very corrosive emotion for the person experiencing it. So why play such a self-destructive game?
Best way to deal with insults on social media is not to respond to the bating, but do reflect on the substance of the criticism to see if there is any real merit to it, so that one might improve oneself if there is any merit by altering one’s ways. Otherwise, let it go — just words on a screen from someone anonymous who doesn’t have a clue about you, doesn’t know you at all, and will never meet you.

Police
It’s the police who keep Americans from turning into savages, particularly in large cities. A society without police would turn into a primal and deadly environment. Police are really the vanguards of orderly society. In many ways, they are the heroes. That there are a small number of corrupt and/or unnecessarily vicious cops changes none of that.
Arson?
Probably a Muslim arson of Notre Dame, and the authorities there will try to whitewash it. What’s the lesson from that?
Non-Issues
Relative to the entire population of the US, you could fit all the racists and white supremacists on the head of a pin and have room to spare.
Victimization
Democratic Party wants black Americans to embrace being a victim. Some black Americans aren’t buying that stereotype.
Cancellation
Sorry, I’ve cancelled today for lack of interest. Try again tomorrow.
Blues
Feeling kind of blue. And it is raining outside. It will pass. So will the rain.
