I grew up in the 1950s/60s in a Detroit suburb that was filled with people who worked for the Big 3. A family friend who was an engineer for Chrysler gave me a copy of Mead’s 1961 book for US Steel, “Concepts.” It was nothing less than fantastic, wondrous science fiction to my 11-yr old eyes.

I had to investigate who was the subject of this portrait.

"I am not so much afraid of Democracy or of Science as of the love of money. This seems to me to be a growing evil. Also, there is a danger from the growth of that dreadful military spirit."

“They didn’t crash out and decide they hated America”

Bullshit. Why were Trump supporters wearing these t-shirts in 2016 when Obama was President?

It’s like the rictus of obsequious, adoring servility Trump showed to Putin:

Putin doesn’t have to work very hard to get something he wants from Trump.

Trump was giving classified natsec info to Russia as soon as he was in the White House in early 2017. Anybody who believes he hasn’t continued to do so is a naive fool.

“It was a hard thing to watch unfold,” said Jerry Argovitz, owner of the Houston Gamblers. “Donald didn’t love the USFL. To him, it was small potatoes. Which is terrible, because we had a great league and a great idea. But then everyone let Donald Trump take over. It was our death.”
