Just for the record, the real Thanksgiving Dinner went off very well with
no scenes from "Hotel California."
My daughter reports that the 22 lb turkey from a local organic farm cost
$125. Holy shit! That's like almost $6 a pound. It was delicious and moist. Still cheaper than fish or beef.
We did not mention the election, except for the 16 year old grand son who wanted to see
the adults fight. He kept making anti-Trump statements. (His dad was a
pro-Trump guy).
It was peaceful and congenial and we were all thankful for our blessings.
...
We did not talk about the terrible choices Trump is making for his cabinet. I was always disappointed that Obama did not select the strongest people for his administration, (especially Treasury and AG and Sec of State, twice), but he looks like a genius compared to the Twitterer-in-Chief (elect)'s announced appointments and reported considerations, Nikki Haley is an ok choice for UN Ambassador -- what the heck do they do, anyway?
I am not
feeling to confident when the guy who has been named Attorney General is a
racist homophobe (Sessions). Ben Carson, who admits that he has no
administrative experience is gonna be HUD Secretary. Two others are blatant plum jobs as a reward for rich donors, who are utterly unqualified to be Cabinet members. If
Rudy Guiliani gets Sec of State, I'm moving to Mexico, if they will let me in..
