I just can't take the illiteracy anymore. Have the Chinese drones hacked spellcheck?
Ha, ha! I am glad I learned spelling and grammar before the internet was assimilated into society. It is annoying to read something and frequently come across errors.

I think the image of him while he is on the ground and covered by agents is another iconic image. I can’t embed it here because it is a Getty image. It was taken by Anna Moneymaker.

[Latin] isn’t the real language spoken by Christ.
That is not one of the arguments for the traditional Latin Mass. Christ was able to speak all languages.
Latin is still the official language of the Church. The new Mass is officially in Latin. There are missals in the vernacular and Latin so that those who don't know Latin can follow along. These existed before the new Mass and no one had a problem using them.

The TV series The Unit was written and/or produced by Mamet. It was excellent! Word has it that someone in Obummer’s admin didn’t like it and had it cancelled.

Is renting Madison Square Garden considered “doing business” in New York?
It is not real estate business. It seems to me to be political campaign business. If they tried to prevent him from conducting campaign business, that would clearly be election interference.

regarding "understated refinement, at least in the physical environments that he created." - As a businessman, he understood that his hotels, resorts, golf clubs, etc. had to appeal to the customers and not be his personal preferences. Compare the decor of the Trump Tower penthouse to the decor of his public-facing properties.
Foreign relations ... notice the word "relation." Business is ultimately about relationships. Considering his success in business, is it really surprising that he would be successful in relationships with foreign dignitaries?
One of my lefty relatives had commented some time ago that Melania rarely seems to smile. If one searches for images of Melania, there are many of her smiling or laughing. However, those are not the ones the "journalists" choose to include in articles about her or Pres. Trump. They find the least flattering images of her. Pathetic.
