Passenger side airbags
A wonderful story led to an unexpected thought.
Wonderful story here, at Curbside Classics, by one of the regular contributors who KNOWS how to take a photograph and how to tell a story. The picture shows a '40 Ford business coupe with a Jack Russell terrier in the seat.
What's unusual? The dog is NOT DRIVING. He's sitting calmly in the right seat. Most dogs, waiting for the owner to finish shopping or eating, will drive. They will take a chance on being Number One for a while. This dog RESPECTS his owner, and the brief story tells you why. Anyone would respect this owner.
Unexpected thought: Why is Trump hated by Deepstate? It goes beyond localism, which he may or may not believe in. It's much simpler. Deepstate expects presidents to be Number Two. Sit on the right side. Not supposed to drive. Nothing new about this... Emerson saw it in 1840.
The farmer imagines power and place are fine things. But the President has paid dear for his White House. It has cost him all of his peace and the best of his manly attributes. To preserve for a short time so conspicuous an appearance before the world, he is content to eat dust before the real masters who stand erect behind his throne.
Trump is accustomed to being Number One in his operation. He wants to drive. This is forbidden. Only one president in recent memory actually took the wheel. FDR. He wasn't expected to drive, but he had enough CONCENTRATION and PERSONAL FORCE and CONNECTIONS to make it happen.
Trump has personal force, but he obviously lacks concentration and connections. All USA STRONG connections are Deepstate. He would have support from Putin and Orban and a few other Euros, but those connections don't matter here.
