30. You're right. He has attracted the worst of the worst. This seems to be a Republican trait. 40

years ago they attracted the Neo-Cons, who took only some 10 years to reach the top of
the Republican political ladder and then the Neo-Cons kicked out the old-timer Repubs.

Recently the Tea Partiers joined them, and they are trying hard to kick out the leaders
of the Neo-Cons.

It's great that you have some place to go to. I've lived in Europe quite a few years
myself, but that was a long time ago. You will enjoy yourself there.
