I'll Say This.
Everybody hates lawyers and everybody loves businessmen even though by definition businessmen fight only for themselves and lawyers have to at least pretend to fight for other people; meanwhile, let's check out the last two two-term presidents from each party:
DEMOCRATS
Lawyer - left the country with runaway peace & prosperity, last president to balance the budget & leave a surplus
Lawyer - landed the plane after the worst financial crises in 80 years including the auto bailout, set the record for continuous job growth, the Affordable Care Act
REPUBLICANS
Businessman - was handed a surplus & delivered the Great Recession, wasted trillions of dollars in an illegal war that killed hundreds of thousands of civilians, exponentially accelerated income disparity via tax cuts for rich
Businessman – the first president since Herbert Hoover to leave office with fewer jobs than when he entered, unnecessarily chaotic tariffs, the Iran War, carried out mass deportations, and gutted USAID despite warnings that the cuts could cost hundreds of thousands of lives.

I was pleasantly surprised to learn earlier today that in a world of being numbed to rising costs everywhere, Popeyes classic chicken sandwich is a surprisingly reasonable $5.99. 🤔👏🙌

Speaking of the Sex Pistols, Which I'm Always Happy to Do
50 years ago last week, the Sex Pistols played "The Gig That Changed Music Forever" to about 40 people in Manchester:
On June the 4th 1976 The Sex Pistols played a poorly attended gig at a small inaccessible venue in Manchester the Lesser Free Trade Hall. There were only around 40 people in the audience that night but the impact of that tiny gig on the city of Manchester was absolutely seismic and the ripples of it are still spreading out today.Want the documentary about the show? You got it! And YES people, you ARE quite welcome!
In fact it could be argued that without this gig the world would never have seen the Smiths, the Buzzcocks, The Fall, Joy Division, New Order, Simply Red, Happy Mondays and without the Smiths and the Manchester movement would there ever have been an Oasis and the Britpop movement.
Think about the ripples of inspiration that came as a result of those bands maybe there would be no Nirvana, Green Day, Suede, Arctic Monkeys, Blur Radiohead, all of whom are acts that owe a debt to bands formed in the sticky carpeted Isles of the Lesser free trade Hall.
This gig acts as a kind of balancing point for the music scene in Manchester without it things could have been very very different today not just for the city itself but for the UK as a whole and beyond.

FINALLY du Jour
A real, definitive Sex Pistols documentary may finally be upon us, and our only clue right now that it won't be the usual "look how CRAZY!! these guys were, WACKY!! " bullshit nonsense is its apparent focus on Glen Matlock, the serious, humanly relatable one who also happened to have all the musical talent at the time.
