Maybe it’s because Trump’s mother was a Scottish born MacLeod?

I can hear the sighs of relief from Jennifer Granholm, and Pat Leahy.

my bad. It was pushed to the front page there, and didn’t realize, but it is kind of interesting, given what’s going on now.

Shot of Scotty (with shots):
Knowledge of the give and take of negotiations involving higherups.

Scotty to Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge in Star Trek: The Net Generation:

“Do you mind a little advice? Starfleet captains are like children. They want everything right now and they want it their way. But the secret is to give them only what they need, not what they want.”

La Forge innocently said he promised his report in an hour and simply gave it in an hour, rather than make it sound like that would be a real strain.
Scotty: Oh, laddie. You’ve got a lo
t to learn if you want people to think of you as a miracle worker.

For years in software development we created two estimates: The real estimate us IT people gave ourselves, and the “Scotty estimate” (as we called it) that we gave to project managers/functional users. LOL

Photo.....

New Saturday Night Live appearance for Kamala in preparation.

Director:
So we’ll need to have makeup do a major realistic look of you being a long-time alcoholic lush.
Oh, wait. You’re already way ahead of us.

If SNL had any reality, Willie Brown would pop-in with a cameo saying he prefers Kamala drunk.
