“What the heck is this?” While listening to RAGE, I came to a complete standstill in my debris littered backyard, perspiring heavily from my pruning frenzy in Florida’s heat and humidity.
What had prompted that reaction? The letters between Trump and the North Korean leader after they became…friends.
As I listened, I wondered if Trump had been played. The North Korean leader’s letters were filled with effusive flattery, but they also sounded odd. They sounded like the leader had assigned a fan of old romance novels or movies the task of writing the letters to Trump. The phrasing is similar. Trump’s weren’t quite as bad, but still…strange. Now, I understand why the news media commented that the letters reminded you of a courtship.
I learned that Trump has had good men around him whose priority was America. When they became aware of what they were dealing with, they worked hard to try to advise and steer Trump in ways that would safeguard America and our interests. One by one, those men left his administration, leaving a vacuum for enablers.
After one of these good men left, Bob Woodward wrote that one of Trump’s advisors—who is also a relative—was glad because a block to Trump and what he wanted to accomplish was gone. This same family member supposedly taught others how to get the decisions they wanted out of Trump. Oily…and insulting.
I’m still listening…
