3. Typical of the rich. Not used to having to know what they are doing.

They have minders for that.

I was reading about Bill and Melinda Gates (looking so adult and serious) explaining how they didn't really know what they were doing helping the poor in Africa and elsewhere. But then, that isn't really what they are about, helping the poor, not really, is it?

Anyway, now that the Iran deal is done, maybe we won't have to drag the AMIA bombing out and grovel over it so often. I have always considered it kind of obvious that that story smelled a lot, and that pigs would fly before we found out who did it. Not so much the bombing itself, but the frantic bullshit storms that would occur whenever it came up.

Macri reminds me of guys like Erdogan and Netanyahu, shallow, half-smart, arrogant, and with poor impulse control. But dumber. Trump is the exemplar of that sort of rich person.

Yeah, I hope he stays where he is for a while longer, let the message sink it what happens when you elect these pipsqueaks to positions of power.
