Proust: On Travel.

The world is a book. Those who do not travel read only a page.

--Marcel Proust, 1871–1922, French novelist, critic.

Life's short. Get up. Go somewhere different. Meet someone different.

--What About Clients/Paris? 2007

Now what? In the Matter of Donald John Trump.

And because everyone asks me..

1. No one sane & savvy I know thinks DJT will be impeached.

2. The upshot? Far more people in all camps think he's an asshole. That's it.

3. Also: No one sane & savvy thinks he's dumb. Everyone thinks he's a scrapper. He won't step down unless he's bored. That won't happen.

4. The only long-term narrative against Trump I can see is that he's nuts. Bonkers. Not enough--we've had a few Wild Man presidents. E.g. Teddy R was way crazy. "He's crazy" won't remove him from office but will hurt him if it sticks. Like in 2020.

5. Mueller is a class act and honest--much better human than Ken Starr (or Comey)--and in any event will drive this away from impeachment because it's bad for the country.

6. The country will more than ever continue to divide into 2 overall camps. Hair on fire Dems vs. fed-up hold their noses GOP folks. People will even talk more about civil war. Which also won't happen.

It's Tuesday, May 16, 2017...

And many of us have been out of pocket.

What horrible outrageous scumbag deed has POTUS No. 45 done in the last 24 hours?


Get up and go to work?
