Apparently we should thank Mr. Trump for all our our planes remaining in the sky last year for all of the things he did to make commercial aviation safer. Granted, no one can point to a single thing that Mr. Trump did in this arena, but we should thank him nonetheless. _"Since taking office I have been very strict on Commercial Aviation. Good news - it was just reported that there were Zero deaths in 2017, the best and safest year on record!”_ ---

Do you think thump might fire Ronny (as the Presidential doc) before he can do the physical? That seems likely to me. I can’t imagine thump allowing a real doctor who went to medical school and graduated and everything to perform an honest-to-God physical examination on him. And release the results either to the public or to anyone who might leak them to the public. Thump will dodge this the way he has dodged every other thing, and no one will do anything about it. He just won’t do it. Period. No one can make him. No one can make him do anything he doesn’t want to. ---
