  1. The Trump-Kim summit is political comedy of the highest order. A screwball comedy. A marriage comedy.
  2. Trump and Kim: the blind leading the blind (though that may be an insult to the blind).
  3. There will be another stock market crash, probably just in time for a progressive president to get stuck with the bill. The point being: the consequences of decisions made today won’t be understood until tomorrow.
  4. People love immoral politicians because they love raw power.
  5. Italy — the Five Star Party — is proof that the politics of comedy and anarchy aren’t revolutionary, just frightening.
  6. It’s funny how many Americans consider America a Christian country — while practicing a politics of hate.
  7. A politics of love: a truly revolutionary idea.
  8. A politics of clear-sightedness: a truly conservative idea.
