Raoul’s 2 Cents<\/h5>\n

Assumptions<\/span><\/h2>\n

We have a President. We just don’t know who he is. Welcome to the 2020 post election!<\/p>\n

I’m amused by the selective coverage of the news media. If you only listen to the left-leaning TV media (ABC, CNN, NBC, PBS, MSNBC, NHK, Newsy), they do not see any evidence of election fraud. If you listen to the right-leaning media (Fox, OAN, Newsmax) they have a lot of evidence. They all have interviews with only the people who share their views.<\/p>\n

A wise counselor told me emotions are real but they cannot be trusted because they do not change the facts. Emotions can be passengers in a bus but you’d be crazy to let emotions drive it.<\/p>\n

I had a pleasant conversation with someone who is my political polar opposite. How was that possible? We respect each other. We’ve known each other a long time. I know she wants the best for America and the world and so do I … we just have different paths based on different data we have gathered. We decided that neither of us have a monopoly of the facts … we just have assumptions. Big difference!<\/p>\n

Of course we would like our candidate to win but our world isn’t going to end if they don’t. Neither of us plan to move to Canada.<\/p>\n

Be safe, be healthy, and remember: bring respect and your assumptions to the discussion table but leave your emotions outside. TGIF people!<\/p>\n
