Great analogy (or is it a metaphor? I never care to remember) except that you forgot about the part where all the fireman told the passersby to "stand back cause we've got this covered", posed for pictures and discussed how well they'll stamp out the fires in the coming years. Only the Dalmatian (OK it was really the Great Dane but it fits better) was yapping out a warning

That is pretty solid.
I can just about see the fireman victory selfies from last fall.


(I just finally got the "Great Dane" reference. < facepalm > Need more coffee.)

New drinking game: anytime Trump references the size of his electoral college win, we drink. Should keep us all sufficiently buzzed to take the edge of the next 4 years.

Really? A President going out during the first February of his first term?

Barack Obama realized, like Trump, that he thrived off large audiences, and he made liberal use of the major speech, even early in his term: In February 2009, he made several trips to promote the stimulus package and his agenda. But Obama’s events were political by implication, while outwardly aimed at boosting specific policies.

Admittedly, Mr. Obama called his a "policy speech" but it was in a rally setting, or as The Atlantic says it was "political by implication".

To-may-to, to-mah-to. <-- Or is that "false equivalency" too.

It's everything. Nothing is normal. And to be honest I'm not feeling the Great in Make America Great Again. I'm not even feeling that the stuff I sort of agreed with him on are going to get done in a manner that I can stomach, never the less agree with.

In other words it's worse than I ever imagined.

Correct. It was just a very tumultuous time. One that almost broke the country.

He was lucky enough to turn 18 in 1968 and was able to experience everything while he came of age. Those were his formative years.

Your father and I are of similar age. It was an amazing time you be young but old enough to be aware of what was happening.

There's your mistake. You need to adopt my credo:

Plan for the worst. When anything better happens you're ahead.

Oh, trust me. I've been battening down the hatches since September. Unfortunately for those of us who are not independently wealthy life is messy and complicated.

The Democrats had to come up with a story as to why they lost the election, and so badly (306), so they made up a story - RUSSIA. Fake news!
