Today I finally understood something about Donald Trump that I had been missing this entire time. And when it hit me โ it hit me completely. Because, look at who this man chose to surround himself with.
Not billionaires.
Not people born into power.
Not people who had everything handed to them.
Karoline Leavitt โ 27 years old. Ice cream shop girl from New Hampshire.
Trump looked at her and saw something the entire world missed.
Made her the youngest Press Secretary in American history.
Susie Wiles โ a woman who has spent her whole life quietly strategizing from the background.
No fame. No spotlight. Just pure brilliance.
Trump looked at her and said โ you will be my Chief of Staff. First female Chief of Staff in American history.
JD Vance โ a soldier. A boy from Appalachia who served his country in uniform before he ever served it in office.
Trump looked at him and said โ you will stand beside me.
Pete Hegseth โ a soldier who gave everything on the battlefield. Two Bronze Stars.
Trump looked at him and said โ you will lead our military.
Marco Rubio โ the son of a bartender and a hotel maid. Two immigrants who came to America with nothing.
Trump looked at their son and made him the first Latino Secretary of State in American history.
My wife heard all of this tonight and said, "Do you understand what Trump actually did?
He did not build a powerful administration.
He built an unbreakable one."
Because every single person in it knows what it feels like to have nothing. And people who came from nothing never take anything for granted.
Tonight, say one prayer for this entire administration. And say a bigger one for the man who chose them.
Then pass this to every American who needs to understand why this administration hits different from every single one that came before it (Jeff Roush)
We cannot accept a complete rollback of our climate laws. Tweaks to the policies are one thing, but abandoning these policies altogether would be a mistake.
The lungs and wallets of NYers are counting on a clean energy transition.
TIM ALLEN - ON TRUMP: Whatever your feelings for Trump, these are some interesting points that Tim Allen makes. Put your hatred aside and think about these observations. Tim Allen is credited with writing this ...
Tim Allen wrote... Here are some interesting points to think about prior to 2020, especially to my friends on the fence, like moderate Democrats, Libertarians and Independents and the never Trump Republicans and those thinking of "walking away" from the Democratic party:
- Women are upset at Trump's naughty words --they also bought 80 million copies of 50 Shades of Gray.
- Not one feminist has defended Sarah Sanders.
It seems women's rights only matter if those women are liberal.
- No Border Walls. No voter ID laws. Did you figure it out yet? But wait... there's more...
- Chelsea Clinton got out of college and got a job at NBC that paid $900,000 per year. Her mom flies around the country speaking out about white privilege.
And just like that, they went from being against foreign interference in our elections to allowing non-citizens to vote in our elections.
- President Trump's wall costs less than the Obamacare website. Let that sink in, America!
- We are one election away from open borders, socialism, gun confiscation, and full-term abortion nationally. We are fighting evil.
- They sent more troops and armament to arrest Roger Stone than they sent to defend Benghazi.
- 60 years ago, Venezuela was 4th on the world economic freedom index. Today, they are 179th and their citizens are dying of starvation. In only 10 years, Venezuela was destroyed by democratic socialism.
- Russia donated $0.00 to the Trump campaign.
Russia donated $145,600,000 to the Clinton Foundation. But Trump was the one investigated!
- Nancy Pelosi invited illegal aliens to the State of the Union. President Trump Invited victims of illegal aliens to the State of the Union. Let that sink in.
- A socialist is basically a communist who doesn't have the power to take everything from their citizens at gunpoint ... Yet!
- How do you walk 3000 miles across Mexico without food or support and show up at our border 100 pounds overweight and with a cellphone?
- Alexandria Ocasio Cortez wants to ban cars, ban planes, give out universal income and thinks socialism works. She calls Donald Trump crazy.
- Bill Clinton paid $850,000 to Paula Jones To get her to go away. I don't remember the FBI raiding his lawyer's office.
- I wake up every day and I am grateful that Hillary Clinton is not the president of the United States of America. The same media that told me Hillary Clinton had a 95% chance of winning, now tells me Trump's approval ratings are low.
- "The problem with socialism is that sooner or later you run out of other people's money." โ
Margaret Thatcher
- Maxine Waters opposes voter ID laws; She thinks that they are racist. You need to have a photo ID to attend her town hall meetings.
- President Trump said โ "They're not after me.
They're after you. I'm just in their way." Now, go Back & Read this Again like your Future Depends upon it, Because it Does!!!

@NewYorkStateAG@Hyundai@Kia So, it's the fault of car makers that folks had their cars stolen and not the fault of the criminals? Makes perfect sense...in a New York kinda way. With that kind of logic, if someone else breaks into my house it's the fault of the failed door lock?

Consistency.. cautions for no reason.. if the same car brushed the wall during a round of pit stops there wouldnโt have been a cautionโฆ half spins .. keep your fingers off the caution light.. everyone has a damn radio.
Alright, so here's the question of the day for you. When I talk to people around the NASCAR industry, a lot of the conversations are about how angry the fan base is. Everyone sees it (and this was well before everything boiled over on Sunday). So...how does that get fixed? How does NASCAR move forward at this point in a way where a year from now, the dialogue here is less vitriolic and you guys are back to having more fun and enjoying the sport again?
I'm not naive enough to think X will ever be a happy place, but I am an optimist and believe this year could be a low point -- which means there are better days ahead.
So what needs to happen for NASCAR to have its "Nature is Healing!" moment with the core fan base? I know a lot of the replies will simply be "change the championship format!" but if we're honest with ourselves, the issues run deeper than that.
What's your take? What will restore your enjoyment level? I'm all ears.

Leigh Diffey is going to end up as one of the best NASCAR play-by-play announcers ever.
Diffey elevates NASCAR broadcast booths to the next level. Just listen to yesterdayโs finish at Kansas.
NBC has an all-time great and NASCAR must love it.
Since 1978, New Yorkers have made an honest living at the Nutrition Bar Confectioners factory.
Last week, armed ICE agents stormed in, singled people out by the color of their skin, and arrested 57 workers.
Thatโs not safety. Itโs cruelty.
๐จ UPDATE - THEY'RE ARRESTING THE EMPLOYERS: A taco shop owner in Arizona has officially been arrested...
...for HIRING illegal aliens.
YES.
Hold the employers accountable!
