Royal Redux

Harry was notable for two specific things;  He served in the regular army and even did two stints in Afghanistan,  and created the Invictus Games -- helping hurt soldiers.

He celebrated 10th anniversary of the Invictus games, now I get that none of the Royal showed up, and I am relatively certain that the King didn't organize a 5,000-people garden party to inconvenience his second son, but to announce on the same day that his older brother would become head of his old regiment is just mean.   

As I have said many times, Harry made his bed and seems to enjoy it a lot more than his previous life.   Nothing is ever perfect, but he and his wife seem to have a good life, the family back channel probably functions but away from the press.   

What was truly amazing was Harry and Megan's African Adventure.  Once again Harry demonstrated an amazing ability to relate with people.   This is the second time that Harry outshines the Royal family in an ex-colony.   

Again, this was probably not the intention, rather Harry is expanding the reach of the Invictus Games as the UK Royal Family are doing almost everything to distance themselves from this very successful initiative.   The Royal family's fundamental problem is that harry really believes that the Invictus Games are making a difference...for the Royal family that's the problem because he is right.

Still Harry kept his head, so he's doing OK.

The end of Tesla?

 it takes a special kind of idiot, to think that he can antagonize his entire customer base, and think that it will not impact his business. When Elon Musk went to work for Donald Trump, and created the doge department, he antagonized every liberal, and these people represent 90% of his client base.That’s not a brilliant move. Now Elon Musk is worth hundreds of billions of dollar, so he shouldn’t care a great deal, however, he needs to care because of several other issues. The cyber truck has been a disaster, most have had to be recalled because of defective glue, it’s not a truck, it’s not a car, it’s noisy, relatively uncomfortable, but great as a development platform. What Tesla has learned in making car manufacturing more seamless is truly amazing. The problem was that Elon Musk was so pissed with the Democrats, and with Joe Biden, in particular because of some slight, which were just plain stupid too. By the way, that he decided to support with hundreds of millions of dollar, ...

Donald Trump‘s bad bargain

 The entire of 2023 and 2024 when Donald Trump was running for the White House, his mantra was no war, that the Ukraine conflict would be resolved in a day, and that he would do everything not to involve America and war. How the world has changed! He finds himself facing three conflicts; Ukraine, still going on almost 5 months after he became president. Gaza, an unspeakable crime against humanity, is obviously going to go all the way to its bitter end. And finally, Israel’s attack against Iran. It’s important to note, that Benjamin Netanyahu first indicated at the United nation that the Iranian were 3 to 5 years away from having the nuclear bomb. He made that statement in 1995. Therefore, no one is surprised that he uses the same two lines every so often. It’s entirely possible, that 30 years after he first announced it, that Iran has finally developed the bomb. It’s also remarkable that Iran, local power has been destroyed, from Yemen, to Syria, via Lebanon and Gaza to small exten...

TACO again, but worst!

 Donald Trump got the rare earth metals that he had thrown away on April 2, liberation day as he called it. What did the Chinese get in exchange? The whole deal, is on the wrap right now. But let’s be clear. It’s the Chinese that have the upper hand.Some of the materials made by the Chinese, are simply unavailable anywhere else. suspicions are that the Chinese got the high-end chips that they lost under Biden. Tariffs will probably return to the level of April 1, and in the end Donald and his friends got nothing for it. It gets worse, Chinese exports to United States are down 40%. The Chinese have found new markets, I probably never gonna buy American grain again. Once again, Donald Trump proved he’s a great negotiator. He got absolutely nothing for his Showmanship. He told the world, that everyone would come and kiss his ass, instead they’re laughing At him. There’s no joke about Donald Trump, a 25 and inherited a huge fortune and proceeded to make it a small one. Bottom line, the...
