I don’t think Trump will be as eloquent in speech as Reagan, but in resolve, most definitely.

Thank you for posting this video clip of what true leadership looks like in the face of indignant opposition.

FWIW...this morning's email included a notice from one of the local public high schools which surprised me in its soundness. Of note, I reside in a patriotic red pocket of a very blue state, NY:

Good evening,

Yesterday, we became aware of potential protesting during school over the next week. These protests were organized out side of school and were then promoted through social media as well as some fliers that were taped up in our hallways.

By following the thread of social media, we were able to determine the organizers. They and their families were in full agreement that the "events" would have posed a significant disruption to the educational process as well as a potential safety issue in our building. The posts were removed from social media and any events/plans were cancelled.

While we wish to empower our students and teach them how to have their voices heard, we must do so in a way that allows for safety in our schools and of course for teaching and learning.

As an alternative, we will use this as a teachable moment in which we can all come together in unity. I invite everyone to wear school colors all week and to recognize, demonstrate and celebrate kindness to each other. By coming together as the great school we are and by celebrating the best in each other we can teach our students to lead the way--as they will-- all too soon!

I lived in Sacramento during those times. It was great to see him in action. Didn’t really think we’d be seeing anything like those protests again but I guess I just wasn’t thinking clearly. Those 60’s creeps went on to run governments and now there’s another crop of them. Just great!
