I was wrong.

I have always believed that the US economy was too big & too complex for any single person to have a meaningful impact. Even the president or Fed chairman.

Help me understand:

Let dogs out into the backyard, and they sit/lie peacefully on the patio with a toy or chew treat.

Bring them in the house and it’s 24/7 Wrestle Mania.

I see a lot of moaning from Trump voters that they’re being shunned this Thanksgiving, and that others are “putting politics ahead of family”. But that’s exactly the opposite of what’s going on.

Any American who calls NATO “the aggressor” is a traitor, or more likely, are paid by Russia.
