That’s our Jerry …
Just released video of Dotard’s visit to the fire zone…
I’m still taking it in that scores of people are already known to be dead and there may be many more. I’ve seen forest fires during fishing trips out west, but I didn’t know it could be this deadly in a populated area. Horrible.
Jerry would never brag, but he does in fact have all the best words.
[Sherriff] Honea expressed hope that Trump’s visit would help with recovery
Huh? From a guy who thinks this?
What a dip-twang
Jerry, you gve him too much credit. He will never rise above his lesser proclivities. He is a moron.
Truly a man who is head and shoulders above many politicians. Wise, contemplative. A good man. He will be missed.
People shouldn’t think he’s going to return to politics, he’s said he won’t. He has on off the grid cabin in the woods, a Corgi named Sutter and wife named Ann whom he loves. He’s got it all.
Also, he is 80 -eight yrs older than Trump. I have a hard time believing it because Jerry is so full of life and smart.
Sigh. We’re all getting older, and many of our heroes are ahead of us.
And that, I think, was the handle—that sense of inevitable victory over the forces of Old and Evil. Not in any mean or military sense; we didn’t need that. Our energy would simply prevail. There was no point in fighting—on our side or theirs. We had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave. . . .
So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark—that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.

I like Jerry Brown. He gets things done.
Unlike some other leaders who just talk.
