PALM BEACH, Fla. — President Trump’s Thanksgiving began, as his days often do, with an all-caps tweet: “HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL!” (emphasis added)

Minutes later, he tweeted of potential “bedlam, chaos, injury and death,” a harbinger of what would be a frenetic Thanksgiving morning.

Over the span of a few hours, the president would mix the traditional pablum of Thanksgiving tidings with renouncing the findings of his Central Intelligence Agency, threatening Mexico, criticizing court decisions, attacking Hillary Clinton over her emails, misstating facts about the economy, floating a shutdown of the government — and per usual, jousting with the news media.

Asked what he was most thankful for on this Thanksgiving Day — a question that for commanders in chief usually prompts praise of service members in harm’s way — Trump delivered a singularly Trumpian answer.

“I made a tremendous difference in our country,” he said, citing himself.

Interesting, no?

Also interesting how many national, state and local Republican officials, by and large, sit back and say nothing publicly about the outbursts, no?

Anyone who reads the SCPR on a regular basis knows the low "political/governance" regard that this blogger has for "thankfully" 'lame duck' state Representative Christina Hagan.

As the father of three highly accomplished daughters who demand/get respect from men in all stations of life and in all contexts, this blogger is particularly offended by Hagan's embracking of Donald Trump.


That Hagan tanked up on political hubris and took on far more than she could chew (running for the 16 Congressional which contains a small portion of Stark County)  and consequently tereby has taken herself out of political/governance circulation come December 31, 2018 is something that all Ohioans and Stark Countians ought to be thankful for this Thanksgiving Day weekend 2018!
