This week alone, we&#8217;ve dealt with the realization that the Rose Garden event of Sept 26 was a &#8216;super spreader&#8217; that infected, at latest count, more than 30 people. But Donald Trump insists he&#8217;s &#8216;cured&#8217; and is hawking his latest drug of choice, one that has not yet been approved by the FDA and is not available to the average citizen. <\/p>\n<p>We also learned that a group of domestic terrorists who call themselves &#8216;militia&#8217; members were plotting to kidnap the Governor of Michigan and overthrow the government. Just another week in October in Donald Trump&#8217;s America&#8230; He&#8217;s been ratcheting up the tension and inciting his followers to violence, while screaming about Antifa and Black Lives Matter and calling them the terrorists. Opposite world indeed.<\/p>\n<p>After dealing with Donald Trump for the last four years, I was intrigued by a new book that crossed my desk: <em><a href=\"https:\/\/bookshop.org\/a\/1630\/9781250205643\">Strongman: The Rise of Five Dictators and the Fall of Democracy <\/a><\/em> by historian and author <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/kennethcdavis\">KENNETH C. DAVIS<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p>Although Mr. Davis doesn&#8217;t mention Trump in the book, it is most definitely a cautionary tale. As the old saying goes, &#8216;Those who don&#8217;t learn from history are doomed to repeat it&#8217;.
