Things that I really like (1 Viewer)

I agree with many of Trump’s executive orders.

The problem is that the more extreme his moves are the more likely that in 4 years someone else can be elected and all of this can be undone with a counter swing that is even more extreme.

As an every day American I just want compromise and middle of the road driven policies.

Judging from the rhetoric on both sides that is all but impossible.

I agree and I hope these big pendulum swings from the far left to the far right don't divide your country even more. It seems like Trump keeps going in hard then backs off to achieve a better position but in some ways it looks like he's to over the top initially, then the left say "I told you so", then he backs down. Which to some makes him look weak. But what do I know, all I know is I'd be no good in politics.

Yes, I think that is exactly right. For good and ill, it's part of Trump's psychological makeup. He promises miracles. He threatens those that oppose him but then he often delivers less than promised. Is it his strategy all along to over promise to get a decent compromise? I don't think so. I think he actually believes he can do many of these things until at some point it becomes obvious that he can't. Then he saves face by simply taking credit for anything that was achieved. That doesn't mean that he hasn't moved the ball in a positive direction, but he has done so in the most divisive way possible leaving himself open to criticism that he hasn't fully delivered on his promise.

The Lakers are wheeling and dealing like the Dodgers. Adding a big, young center was the final piece of the puzzle. Done. They gave up a lot for Williams, but they are in "win now" mode. Strangely, they are in first place in the west even before these deals.

The "Final Destination" movies. They stumbled on a winning campy formula that never gets old. Fate can't be cheated. Tony Todd (aka the Candyman) was fantastic in his short cameos. He recently reached his final destination, but I understand he is in the next movie coming out in May.

I liked them, but now I'm very wary of log trucks, always speed past them before they lose their load

I like transparency especially when it comes to USA Income tax dollars and how they are spent. Anyone following the USAID scandals???? Holy Smokes what a mess. I am sure when all is said and done, you could make a documentary that would flow more like a thriller novel. As I like to say, you just can't make this up.

I bet the waste will be over a trillion dollars when they check everything. IRS, Here comes the Musk!
