Last night I saw two movies, 'Gladiator' in a theater for $5 Tuesdays, and 'Buy Now' on Netflix at home.

Why did Kamala Harris lose to Donald Trump?

'Look around the world. Everywhere, incumbent governments of every hue have taken a beating from angry voters. For the first time in almost 120 years, - in 10 major countries - suffered an unprecedented reversal.'
