What did we miss while we were relaxing this weekend?
Elon Musk decided not to join the board at Twitter. He's a smart guy, and I'm sure tht he gamed this decision based on his own best interests.
Disney Inc is still in the news. I think that Disney tried to move the needle too quickly and forgot who their core customer base is. They have entered into a political fight that they should have avoided.
Ukraine is learning the Israel lesson. They are learning who they can count on, and who they cannot count on. More particularly, they are learning that to survive, they have to depend on each other.
History does not always repeat, but it rhymes. In the shot term sense I am struck by the lesson that Lee learned at Gettysburg. The Russians are learning the same lesson. It's harder to coordinate from outside the hook than it is to defend from inside he hook. One would think in this age of near-instant communications that this would not be true, but inside lies are always easier to coordinate than outside lines.
Good points.
ReplyDeleteI think that in the last couple years the Dems came too far out if the shadows and that will hurt them.
If they had kept slow and steady and not made such a big deal about Trump (among other things) they'd be able to take over in a few years with few waves, but they didn't wait and now they have lots of opposition.
