There's something to be said for instinct and trusting your own senses to make a quick decision, especially if it has served you well all your life. He got me thinking with the flag football fight story though. I had a similar flag football story, which got settled on the field in the very next play - not 2 hours later walking up the hill. Incidentally, we also had to walk up the hill after the game. Funny coincidence.

My story goes like this: I was on the defensive line, but strategically not smashing into the line to go after the flag. I would hold and dodge and let the linemen smash into each other and tangle up on the ground. I'd step over the tangle, go right to the guy who wound up with the flag, and grab it consistently before he got anywhere.

One of their linemen decided that wasn't "fair", so he decided to take me out. He rammed into me, even though I hadn't pushed forward, and he kept going - over and over and over. Knocking me down and when I'd try to get up, he'd do it again. Long after the flag had been grabbed by someone else. Everyone turned to see that I'd been blasted yards away from the line. It was crazy. The guy was blowing snot bubbles and acting insane.

Our guys got together, without me even making a suggestion, and they all slammed that guy at once on the next play. Point was made and the game continued.

Trump wins because he is well informed and knows what's up almost all the time. He depends on help though. He has to get the best help. Barr appointed Durham, who seemed at the time like the best - he was successful(?) in exposing things we need to know previously against the CIA. So TWT.

BTW, 760000. Props to your milestone post.
