Surfing through the channels last night, I came across Trump's speech at CPAC.
- He looked old
- He looked tired
- I watched for about 90 seconds, and it was all stuff I heard in 2016.
Having had (more than) enough, I watched "Legends and Lies," about the Revolutionary War, narrated by Kelsey Grammar.

How'd you like Kelsey's show?

I watched 2 ½ episodes. Enjoyed them. The actors don't look very much like the people they're portraying, but overall it was a nice telling of the tales. The scene where Adams secured the innocence of the British soldiers was particularly well done.
The commentaries by Brand and others were good as well.
Having read several biographies of Washington, and also those of Adams, Hamilton, Franklin, I found this was a nice reminder, distilled into an hour.

Be a hoot if he gets elected, though.

one of his attractions is that he resents the same people his supporters do . . .
He ought to. He made it his business to.

Be an even bigger hoot if he gets slaughtered in the primaries. Watching his 'it's so unfair' routine never gets old.

It's waaay too early, but right now he's killing it in the primary polls...

Trump vs Biden?
That's and easy decision for me.
I'll be surprised if that ends up being the choices.

The biggest gift the democrats could get for the next President election is if President Trump was the nominee.

Not if Biden is their nominee.

@Jolly I very hope that President Biden will not be, but if it is Trump vs. Biden again, I think the results will be the same.
People have short memories. In two years, I think inflation will be down, stocks will be up, COVID will be a memory, etc.

You think a campaign based almost entirely on past personal grievance is what the country is looking for?

Nope, but I think a lot of the country is worried about the economy and inflation. And I think the length of the COVID mandates can be linked to Biden.

Not particularly inspiring.
