Trump alone gets out the vote that Republicans need. And he alone gets out the vote that Democrats need, too. This is the problem of dictatorship under America's Big Brother. Only his voice seems to matter politically. Fortunately, Trump will be gone soon, constitutionally or actuarially.

U2's song "When I Look at the World" is about having a crisis of faith in the face of tragedy, and it's also interpreted as being about finding meaning and comfort in seeing the world from another's perspective. The lyrics are about the struggle to find meaning.

This clip is a great throwback for anyone who grew up during the 1960s and 1970s as I did. I still have hazy memories of "Turn, Turn, Turn" being mentioned during Sunday School class because it quotes Ecclesiastes. This performance is pure awesomeness, especially Bob Dylan.

Trump mirrors his generation. Two book titles sum up Trump: Less than Zero (Bret Easton Ellis) and A Generation of Swine (Hunter Thompson). Brazen, unflinching amorality and self-indulgence are the essence of his attitudes, behaviors, and speeches and his entire approach to life.
