Telling

The analysis is in.  Trump won more voters without college degrees than Harris.  These are the very people whom inflation has devastated over the last four years and whose income has not kept up.  They were sending a message to Democrats.  You have forgotten us in your coalition of well educated citizens. Have the Democrats […]

Gracious

This is the concession speech that former President Trump should have given four years ago, but didn’t.  Now Americans will have to endure triumphalism and boasting for four more years.  It could be worse and it still might be. Tweet This Post

The Day After

Time for Republican celebration.  Time for Democratic reflection.  One can only hope the violent rhetoric of the election cycle doesn’t come to fruition.  We will know in four years.  We will be living in a different country until that time and taking minority positions much of the period.  It will be hard but it must […]

Leak?

One can rarely know if a leaked document was the result of an individual or a government strategy.  Thus, in the case of US intelligence focused on Israel’s preparation to counterattack Iran, one must ask who did the leaking?  No one seems to know at this time and there is no corroboration of the information.  […]

The Lion’s Den

It takes courage and verbal skill to sit for an interview with a news source trying to defeat your candidacy.  But VP Harris consented to an interview with Fox News anyway.  Her interviewer was on the attack and Harris was on defense immediately, but she called him out for talking over her.  The consensus is […]

Tradition

When is tradition a useless tool of government?   Perhaps when after 700+ years, it is time to get rid of it.  That is what the UK is considering with the House of Lords.  The message is that it is time to constitute a body of legislators who more closely reflect the citizens of the country.  […]

Misleading

Tesla misled humans by introducing robots at an event that were manipulated behind the scenes by other humans.  The robots served drinks but were not autonomous in doing it.  Observers condemned the trickery and Tesla got a black PR eye.  Musk should know better. Tweet This Post

Amazing

You don’t have to like Elon Musk to understand that this was amazing.  It is incredible PR for SpaceX and the company’s engineers are rightly gobsmacked with wonder.  Tweet This Post
