I once said to a bunch of European Wilsonians (French in this case) 'Your problem is you let theory always get in the way pf practice.' Give me the transactionality of a NY property developer to solve actual problems!

John, you can’t leave us hanging like that! What was their response? Were they Parisians? Did they chase you out of town?

John, absolutely "Credibility" has returned to USA. Unfortunately, the "blob"(as you say) will talk time to digest what's transpiring, or may never. Exciting messy times... and much more to follow. Thanks to you and the Team for the immediate reports, understanding and predictions.

Following on, we are all curious about Ukraine now of course.

Trump is streetwise.

Something Europeans will never get. They prefer to be intellectual. Their intellect stands in the way of wisdom and success. Theory is too important to let practice influence it.

The audio was very clear today! Thank you! John, I also remember very well when Reagan was elected and the release of the hostages and had the same feeling that history is repeating itself! Have a great day!!!!

Glad the Audio is back (we checked but our tech people will breath a sigh of relief). Yes, again the magic elixir of history; Terri, this feels just like Reagan in 1981 because the underlying point about credibility is exactly the same. History is rhyming!

Terri, Try headphones the next time . The audio problem was much better with them.
