To nobody’s surprise, Sean Spicer resigned last week as WH Press Secretary. The move came on the heels of the appointment of Anthony Scaramucci as WH Communications Director. Spicer was known for his combative temperament and knack for making false, and sometimes outrageous, statements to the press corps. Sean Spicer was not a very good press secretary, but I think we all must admit that he had an exceptionally tough job. Things got so bad for Mr. Spicer that the WH eventually banned cameras from the daily press briefings. As Sean Spicer, the hilarious Melissa McCarthy created a character for SNL that was even more popular than Alec Baldwin as the president. I’m sure “Spicy’s” resignation was a major disappointment to the writers at 30 Rock – and their fans.
Never in U.S. history have we had two older or less popular candidates running for president of the United States than we do today. We repeatedly hear the question, “How can these two candidates be the best our country has to offer?”.
if you are primarily fearful of living in a society that is racist and discriminatory, you should be very concerned with what is happening with the political far left. If your primary fear is moving our society towards socialism and communism, then you should be mostly fearful of the political far right. That statement may seem counterintuitive, but it is absolutely true.
People on the political right believe that people on the extreme left are the biggest problems in our nation. People on the political left think that people on the extreme right pose the biggest threat. This is one occasion when both sides are correct.
