Online Public Relations Thoughts

When the contractor who previously worked on the reflecting pool in Washington passed on the project because it was "unfeasible," Trump should have known he was expecting too much too quickly.  He didn't listen and now must deal with a national embarrassment.

A good way to sour relationships with one's own party is to berate its members as President Trump did yesterday to Senate Republicans.

UK's prime minister has finally decided to stop fighting the tide of public opinion and has resigned.  Would that we had something similar in the US.  

Barack Obama's Presidential Center is not a library and doesn't store papers from his administration.  It's different.  It is a community center along with a discussion of American democracy, what is right and what needs to be addressed.  It is interesting that President Trump wasn't invited to the opening ceremonies but all living former presidents were and they were there.  Obama believes in an active democracy:  "Do something."  "Yes, we can."  It is the opposite of accumulation of power that Trump represents and is a hopeful view of America.  It is a needed reminder.
