For someone that spends a lot of time talking about how he isn’t much of a writer, he’s a pretty good writer. I enjoyed the sentiments. But, make no mistake that his book is being released in volumes for economic reasons.

I’m very disturbed by how many people voted for Trump. I’m more disturbed by the fact that so many of them believe his baseless claims that the election was stolen from him. There’s a lot of stupid out there. Education is what this country needs. Critical thinking skills. I also think that two worse things to happen to electoral politics are cable news and social media. Two things Trump has traditionally wielded like a sword.
