When Uncle Ken mentioned the bit of rain during his eclipse observation I was thinking, wasn't the ability to control the weather one of those things that was predicted many decades ago, along with the flying cars? At least the weather predictions are getting more accurate and we have a little more time to prepare for big events, like that hurricane headed to the gulf coast of Texas. Not a lot of fun coping with rainfalls of 20-30 inches, as has been forecast.

The "dueling Trumps" notion has been discussed by some of the pundits recently, with some nicely edited clips demonstrating the difference between the Teleprompter Trump and the Spontaneous Trump. Reading the transcripts is revealing; the teleprompter version is reasonably coherent but the spontaneous version is all over the place, almost nonsensical. You can tell his prepared written statements were created by someone else, maybe a group effort from his staff, but he doesn't like those. Funny thing is that he actually thinks his own speeches are good, the best, even if they are gibberish to the ears of anyone else. He is redefining the concept of delusional.
It is all getting a little ho hum, but I still can't look away.
Me neither. Coverage of Trump has been a gold mine for the cable news networks. I don't expect it to last; there is increasing chatter that he will resign rather than face all the indignities of further Russian revelations. So far, none of the information in that dossier has been disproved and one of the guys responsible for the dossier recently testified for ten hours in front of one of the intelligence committees, supplying 40,000 pages of documents. That's an awful lot of source material to dig through and will take some time. Maybe that "pee tape" will finally surface on YouTube.
With any luck, Pence will be dragged into this and it will be a whole new ball game.
