Lord of the Rings is the story of our time, set in another. Tolkien clearly knew human nature and the ancient battle of good vs evil. His analysis and storytelling gifts resonate now, too, as human nature hasn’t changed. There is no gain without sacrifice, only unlike our enemies who gained for ages on OUR sacrifice, now all of our sacrifices are our decision, not theirs. Trump’s visionary and extraordinarily gifted for this time and position; he’s made his sacrifices. Now the populations will join ours, make their own sacrifices and decisions, to regain the individual dignity our would-be lords stole from us. We, still being humans, must not fall in the trap of the love of power over others. We must lead the way in restoring our country’s sovereignty and prosperity. Trump’s mastery of strategy and his intimate knowledge of The Art of War (and of the deal) leads the way. Leaders that desire to serve after his time must embrace this philosophy of leadership, sacrifice, love of people and freedom. Service, not Rule.

Thank you, Fearless Tiger!!🐅

I let the robot read it again and that dude has a learning curve ahead in regard to your style. But I am ahead of that curve and can hear it the way you intend. I am so very tempted to send this to my dad..but he is not going to get it any more than the robot. Hopefully he is hearing positive economic news that is opening his eyeballs. I floated BTC to him a year ago and he quoted Warren Buffet. In that same conversation I told him that gold had been deemed legal tender in a number of states. His eyebrows raised as he had missed this news and it came to him as a welcome surprise. I hope he is ruminating on these morsels as they become increasingly part of the Fox News narrative seed. It is a complicated dance I do with him because his wife is annoyed if I forward these things. As always, I love every bit of it. Thank you
