For some reason

For some reason I’ve been thinking about a movie that came out in the 70s, Executive Action, about the JFK assassination. Scariest parts were the calm, casual conversations in the room with the pool table. And no, I am NOT suggesting any degree of violence against Trump. But I can’t help wondering who are the people having those calm, casual conversations today.

There is a George R. R. Martin story about a rich man who identified a racist as the most dangerous man in America as he started his march to the Presidency. The man was terminal, and he assassinated the man. That led to the VP candidate picking up the martyr strength to do even more damage.

He has to be beaten in the polling booth and then in court.
