George Will's Way

"It seems to me a weak man's idea of strength to constantly insist on having the last word." #GeorgeWill on #MorningJoe.

A little before this, George noted, "The English language is not Mr. Trump's best friend." 

But re: that first bit:

George Will is talking directly about Donald Trump, and it is most certainly applicable and, I think, a significant criticism. 

I can't help looking at myself here, too, though. So often I have either pushed to have the last word or else felt frustrated by not being able to have the last word. I have tended to see that as a "But you don't understand" kind of situation. Which is really an attempt to make the other person either see things my way or, at least, not see me as The Bad Guy. And maybe that is me being a weak man caught up in a false idea of strength. That bothers the fucking fuck out of me. 

Now ahmo go wait for my chickens to hatch so I can count them.

Thanks for making me examine my life, George Will.
