President Trump is
trying to push through tax cuts or reforms to help build the economy. Building
the economy is good. We need this. The matter is of methods. His preferred method to berate or deprecate
his own party to action.
He needs to exercise leadership with the entire Congress. Leadership is an ephemeral quality only a
very few understand and even fewer know.
The Congress is rather leaderless, and has been for many years. Both
parties share this guilt. Congress can obstruct, and it is masterful at delay
and inaction. Briefly, doing stuff is
not their forte. Leadership!! The President can command and he can direct, but can he work with? This is needed right now.
When was the last time we had such a leader, able to build bridges, to communicate, and to achieve?

Independent people don’t
like masked riders, or masked demonstrators, or masked anarchists. These make them nervous. They don’t like freedom of speech denied;
they don’t like alternative opinions denied; they don’t like disruption of
honest and legal process.
So, these groups
promoting the denial of traditional values (e.g. bill of rights) should be on
alert. Every time we see a group,
dressed in black or white, masked, and using clubs to promote a point of view,
or just rioting in the streets, they are at risk. They definitely lose votes in the next cycle.

When you do something
stupid, you just live with it. When you
make a colossal stupidity, you and your family live with it. But when a small town does something
unbelievably stupid, the entire nation knows about it. Case in point: Katy, TX with a population of about 15,000
has just dedicated its new football stadium for the local high school team.
Cost? $70,300,000, the most expensive in
the nation. (NBC News) That clocks
in at $4687/person. BTW, Katy has
experienced extensive flooding from Hurricane Harvey. A $70m stadium, a public embarrassment
at the least, will not help band them together.
