World Cup loses hit harder as you age. You think about where you will be in four years, how your kids will be older, if you’ll ever see your country win, your own mortality, and how many more of these you’ll see. I have probably 11-12 left in my life. Unsettling thought, really.
I spoke to my old friend Mitch McConnell this morning, the senior Senator from Kentucky. He’s still recovering in the hospital. We talked for just shy of 45 minutes. He's so sharp. Just like always he let me do all of the talking. He's a great listener. After that we prayed silently for awhile and had a staring contest. Just like always, he beat me. I told him we want to see him back at work as soon as possible.
In my entire life I've only heard the phrase "boys will be boys" used when like a 7 year old breaks his leg trying to jump off a roof using an umbrella as a parachute
I spoke to McConnell for about 20 minutes this morning.
He said we should end the war with Iran, quit giving aid to Israel, stop spying on Americans without a warrant, and he’s really sorry about how my primary turned out.
