Heartfelt and personal, thank you.

I was thinking that we should compile a list of questions that should be asked at the presidential debate. We should expose Trump’s ignorance. What would be good questions?

I think they should ask about :

Project 2025, becoming a dictator, dismantling our DOJ, planning another insurrection if Biden wins, letting Putin take Ukraine, what would happen to Social Security, IVF, birth control, about giving the wealthy a tax break again, what you would do with Obamacare?

Jake Tapper and Dana Bash are the mediators. Anyone know how to get in touch with them?

I would say to Trump: “You say you are for the black people, then why did you get sued for refusing to rent to them?”

Wasn't that his father? Still, not a bad question.

I would say to him, "How do you think you can effectively oversee the departments of State, Justice, and Defense, when you have a criminal record that would bar you from receiving the most basic sort of security clearance required for a junior employee in any of those departments?"

Excellent! Those are the quality questions they should be asking!

Remember Megan Kelly’s ‘women are pigs’ question? She became enemy #1 in his eyes & she felt his revenge.

Then she came groveling back to him and now she SUPPORTS him!

I was shocked and felt she did it for $$, her job, instead of principle. Her appearance has greatly suffered, unfortunately. She used to be strikingly beautiful.

When you sell out, you will pay the price for it. At the opposite end of the scale, Joan Baez has remained beautiful into her 80's.

BTW, you had quite a Dad. So did I. For our fathers who are no longer with us, Happy Father’s Day!

Most moving. . .a delightful portrait of your "Dad." Thanks for printing and recording it. You could do a lot worse than to reissue it every Fathers' Day.

I too have found father figures when I felt my own father wasn't what I needed. But I ultimately made my peace with my dad. https://jimbuie.substack.com/p/daddys-surprising-wisdom

Loved hearing the story of "papa," and learn of the positive impact he has in your life!
