Suddenly I turned around

 and she was standin’ there

With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair
She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns
“Come in,” she said, “I’ll give you shelter from the storm” (Dylan)

There is a lot that can be said of Donald J Trump......the positive and the negative....but for today at least, he should be allowed to bask in the glow of accomplishing something that most of us ( including me) felt was impossible........imagine if someone in the final 20 hostages released was a friend or family member ?  so many times over the past 2 years i felt as though the hostages were already dead and that Israel should just go into ghaza and kill everyone.......i am stunned and astonished that they somehow got 20 more innocent souls released....well done.

Where do the American protestors pivot now ?  for 2 years they have cried about about a fictitious genocide, ignoring the fact that Ghaza and Hamas started the conflict and took human hostages.......but now the war has been ended by their greatest enemy....the evil Dr Orange .....what now ?

i suppose there is a big huddle this morning with Bernie, AOC, Omar and the rest of the jv squad.......how do we react ?  how do we find fault with Trump? how do we shift focus in a different direction? which buzz words will the echo to Martha Brennan , Norah O'Donnell and meet the press ?

how tiring it must be to limp through life as the perennial victim .

Kudos Mr. President......i personally did not think it was worth the time or effort to focus on the hostages for so long.....but i stand here corrected.

2+3=BEEER

In a little hilltop village, they gambled for my clothes
I bargained for salvation an’ they gave me a lethal dose
I offered up my innocence and got repaid with scorn
“Come in,” she said, “I’ll give you shelter from the storm”
