I love how perceptive you are, Mary, and how you calmly “tell things as they are” in such a clever, insightful and gutsy way.

Put Iran into this analogy. Big bombs good. Peace talks boring.

"an American Jack Reacher"? Jack Reacher IS an American.

You have to marvel at Bessent's shamelesness. He referred to Trump, at the convention, as someone "who never sleeps." Cue the dozen or more photos of Trump snoozing, in public, at meetings, including yesterday. With the extensiveness of the moral rot that pervades this administration, who needs Covid?

Thank you, Mary. Excellent post. My only wish is that more people would read it, especially those who identify as maga and/or republican.
