He drools over the authority and how no one can question the Chinese leader no matter what he says or does. tRump wants that so badly for himself. On a personal note if my energy holds and I don’t fall asleep when I get home I should be good to go for replies to comments. Yesterday started out good for me and I will explain that later. But the afternoon turned bad for me with the pain in my right leg so I ended up in bed at 3 PM. Hugs.

Two White House / administration expel said that fact that US public were still buying and had such high credit care=d debt showed how wonderful the economy was. The president keeps saying the economy is great because the stock market is doing great and him and his buddies are making money hand over fist right now. While the people suffer. Typical disc actor strongman view of the economy. Remember tRump says that he doesn’t think about the financial situation of the American people. Hugs.
