Trump as Caesar: Another View
This morning I had an appointment between Annapolis and Baltimore, and everyone over there was all abuzz about the shooting in Alexandria an hour or so earlier.

Every year our whole family fills out brackets for the men’s NCAA basketball tournament. After the first round, my four-year-old nephew, Kevin, is kicking butt and taking names!
