I’m 58, my parents raised me on oldies. Big Beatles fan (hit Liverpool in 2020), Zeppelin too. I’ve always known about the Mamas and Papas of course, but only grew to appreciate them and their origins/catalog in the last year.
It’s tough. I’m 58 and was in the Navy 85-05. I love my country and think she needs defending. But the last few years, boy, I would not want to be in. I went on vacation in early December and one of our stops was Flanders Fields American cemetery in Belgium. Heartbreaking. A frequent refrain from me is, ‘America is killing itself.’
Thanks for your comment/comments. Your post seems to be a longer version of what I said above, in that the longer this goes on, the less I think anything will happen, and it’s troubling. I voted for Trump twice and will again. That being said, there is a part of me that thinks, “Is Trump just trying to keep us calm and placate us so we do nothing and just let the country be ruined further?”
Keep going! You have to make it work out to 17.
