Glenn K. Beaton, the sage of Aspen, writes columns worth reading, today’s especially so. He characterizes it as an apology to Donald Trump.
His basic point, Trump didn’t have to take all the grief he is getting, most billionaires don’t bother and live gilded lives. See Beaton’s conclusion, and then go read the whole column.
Trump and I have different lives, different personalities, different styles, different bank accounts, and different sizes. But whatever his failings, I admire and respect him for putting at stake his life and fortune for the country I love. Thank you for that, Mr. President.
Amen to that. Trump is what you get when a serial entrepreneur is also a serious patriot.
