Bruce,

About your better advice...

If what those young folks in the bottom half are studying is how do to things for themselves, then -- yeah -- that's the ticket cuz the best revolution is simply not needing the other guy (especially the guy, or gal, who wants to direct you).

But if those young folks are studying anything that's currently in vogue on campuses, well...

Its called an MBA. How to learn things that build, create, or invent nothing.

Don't listen to the hysterical ravings of the increasingly irrelevant. Listen to Trump. HIS words, not what someone says are his words.

Give the man a chance; he might surprise you.
I think he's starting to make his position pretty clear....

Yep. He attacks everyone. Then changes his position. Then changes it again. A strategy for confusing everyone. A moving target is harder to pin down.

It keeps the Russians, Chinese, and North Koreans off guard. Westerners are just collateral damage. Now you know how it feels.

What's good for the goose is good for the gander.
