McK, First, I want to let you know that you are the most important woman in my life. Always will be.

Maximus Decimus Meridias Trump – “Are You Not Entertained?”
The first debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton at Hofstra University proved to be more than a ratings sweep for the three major networks and news channels. To be exact, I mean “semi-exact,” it was pure entertainment. And a fantastic study of body language.

Of Mice, Men, and Donald Trump – John Steinbeck Warned Us
Watching Donald Trump disparage those who are not like him but claim that he represents their interests has been more than a surreal journey to an alternate universe.

That Tweet From The NC GOP & Trump’s Lapel Pin – Nonfiction Meets Fiction
It was very disappointing to see that the NC GOP party forgot to take both the time and effort to investigate how what it says can be shameful and embarrassing to all people in North Carolina.
