Trump Versus Clinton

A friend sent me a link to a Donald Trump video he wanted me to share with you. He said it was going viral. It wasn’t, at least not when I looked at it on YouTube. Unless the definition of viral has changed. And, quite frankly, the video was boring. Maybe another time I’ll come […]

The Debate

It must be a week since I last wrote about Donald Trump, who is so close to sewing up the Republican Party nomination for the US presidency that he can almost taste it. Rather than write something new, I thought it fitting to re-post this piece from last August, the first time “The Donald” graced […]

An Outraged Trump

It’s been a couple of weeks since we turned our gaze southward to look at the Trump campaign. Time to rectify that, just in case you are suffering from Trump withdrawal. Maybe the novelty has faded, but we in Canada aren’t hearing much about Donald Trump these days. Or maybe it is just that our […]

Vote Trump!

  As the primary season winds down and the general election is about to get underway, it is time to explain why Donald Trump has won my vote and why I think he should be the next President of the United States. There is no doubt in my mind that ‘The Donald” as one of […]

There’s A Riot Going On

Conn Smythe used to say “If you can’t beat ’em in the alley, you can’t beat ’em on the ice.” That’s not as pugnacious as it sounds really, he was talking about hockey after all. Smythe was talking about the need for players to have a certain attitude, to bring a combative approach to how […]

The Primaries

They are calling today “Mega Tuesday,” to distinguish it from “Super Tuesday,” and once again some pundits are suggesting Donald Trump, despite a couple of primary losses this past Saturday, could sew up the Republican Presidential nomination with a strong showing. Somehow it seems we have heard this story before. My daughter asked me if […]

Light in the Election Tunnel

I was pondering what to say about the U.S. Presidential race now that the votes had been counted on Super Tuesday and there had been some time for the results to sink in. Then a friend sent me a link to a video of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II endorsing one of the candidates. I […]

Trumped!

Okay, I was wrong. Or maybe I was right and he changed his mind. Sometime in the past six months Donald Trump has become a serious political candidate. It is becoming increasingly likely he will win the Republican presidential nomination, making him a 50-50 choice to become the next president of the United States. How […]

Democrats and Republicans

Must be at least a week since I have mentioned Donald Trump, a week in which he has moved closer to securing the Republican nomination as candidate for the US presidency in the November election. But “The Donald” as one of his ex-wives used to refer to him is not my focus today. It’s time […]

Life On Mars

They say real estate is always a good investment; the price of land always goes up. So maybe I shouldn’t pass on the offer. From what I can see the property does have pretty much limitless potential. But investing in anything always carries with it a certain amount of risk, and I tend to be […]
