Being able to poke fun at one's self, if nothing else, shows a health sense of identity. Trump could never tolerate mocking and would NEVER poke fun at himself. We were worse as a nation for this amazing lack of humanity.

Do I wish Joe Biden was younger? Yes!… and so does he. But his age will not stop me from proudly voting for him in 2024. Every news story about his re-election has the stupid ageist thing front and center. But the news stories about tRump seldom have his history of criminality front and center. MSM is doing the county a disservice by not emphasizing the bad character of tRump.

Yes, Dean, you were brilliant and saved me a lot of typing.

So much speculation about Carlson ignores what is most certainly in his contract: they have to keep paying him his salary so long as he does not violate that contract, and anying he makes can be deducted from what they have to pay him which is between 20 and 30 million a year. Granted, everyone has different values, but for that sort of money, I would be willing not to say a work in public for the duration. Also, if he outright violates it, they can fire him for "cause" as is defined in that contract. (He may be stupid enough to do it, but I doubt it for those prices.)

I’m 20 yrs younger than President Biden & I wish my mind was as sharp as his! Do I wish for a younger, more progressive, Democratic nominee for 2024? Yes. But, I will proudly, & happily, vote for this man!

Excellent article, it looked like a good evening, almost fit for a BowTie.
