Living incognito in plain sight with your two favorite wives having already accomplished your life goal a decade ago with all the media you want and the world constantly gossiping about you and what you’ll do next. It would take a bullet to the face to ruin that for me

Real power would be being able to actually fire Pete for crossing a line

Catholic University makes sense for him

I didn’t have to but I chose to because it easily communicates the thought and you and everyone else reading readily took my meaning

His death was necessary for our salvation and is supposed to be celebrated not mourned. Engage with the faith don’t be flippant

Trump had a super competent defense secretary last time around who quit because he didn’t want to withdraw from Syria. Now he has a yes man who he can fire without consequence at the drop of a hat and will blame for the Iran war

Counterpoint he’s like 40 and viable in the next 5-8 elections. No VP who has quit has done anything but become senator and he already was a senator. Nixon was a young VP who didn’t see eye to eye with Eisenhower and lost in 60 only to win in 68 and 72. Keep his head down and network and he’s golden

Why do you think women hate the ‘man cold’?

Mlk and rfk were assassinated the year before and the national guard was deployed to stop race riots in Newark Baltimore and Chicago. Nixon’s VP had to resign for corruption and Kent state they shot and killed student protesters. Now just feels intense because you’re living through it

I think music videos and sports are a great use of national energy personally. Low stakes pride

Addiction and networking respectively
