Doug “Uncola” Lynn returns to a favorite question: is Trump one of them or one of us? From Lynn at theburningplatform.com:
The axiomatic adages contained in the title of this article would be labeled as common sense by most Americans; especially Americans because, in the United States, everyone loves a winner. It’s also true no one ever wins by being wrong – unless in the instances of dumb luck or corruption and these never ensure long-lasting success.
Of course, the inverse of this article’s title would be: Everyone wants to be right and nobody likes to lose. And, particularly, in America, the land of the free and the home of the brave. The shining city on a hill.
Such are the stories we tell ourselves.
Twenty years ago, this blogger had a friend and former co-worker who entered into a downward spiral in the wake of his father’s death. Being a former drinking buddy and someone I’d not seen in some time, we ran into each other again at a party and him with a real floozy on his arm. They were making out like teenagers and it was sort of embarrassing.
