Ex-President Trump had a near miss recently. That can be traumatizing. We know how it is, our old republic survived a near insurrection recently. At least Trump's assailant was killed, he can rest easy. Thanks to faux-jurisprudence, our felon is still out there - on the loose. . . Songs for this: Run On by Elvis Presley Use Me (feat. Cynthia Greene) by The Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir Order My Steps by The Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir . I love gospel music, maybe because I’m from Georgia, the home of MLK, civil rights and the Ebenezer Baptist Church. Lisa (who lives in Manhattan) and I’ve made two pilgrimages to the Brooklyn Tabernacle to hear the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir. I admit that I’m a heathen and a pagan but when I hear a gospel choir - I'm easily reduced to tears, and I’m moved to at least wish that I believed. . I would never wish Mr. Trump harm. I would like to see him loose fairly and resume his opulent, civilian life.
