DONALD TRUMP - THE REST OF THE STORY - By Bernard Bujold - The Donald Trump adventure is drawing to a close with the New York verdict and the date of November 5.  What next?  If this were a TV series, the hero would be totally dominated by obstacles, but he always manages to overcome everything and emerge victorious.  Donald Trump has lost none of his energy, and since the verdict was announced, he has risen slightly in the polls, and his fundraising campaign raised almost $35 million in the hours following the ruling alone. The story is to be continued...  SEE DONALD TRUMP PRESS CONFERENCE  https://www.wsj.com/politics/elections/trump-decries-guilty-verdict-presses-ahead-with-campaign-against-biden-a822778a?st=77tbyzxm9p9evo8&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink

ROBIN HOOD SURVIVAL- By Bernard Bujold -  Half of all Americans are delighted with the verdict of the New York trial, and the other half are dead at heart... What do we do when we're so polarized, with no possibility of coming together? There's only one planet...  The same polarization can be seen in many other countries: Ukraine, Israel, Palestine, Haiti, etc. "How can we survive this polarization?  As an "old quidam", I don't have the answer... But in the end, the question is impossible to answer.  Stay tuned until November 5!  https://www.facebook.com/media/set/edit/a.10166662447515541

DONALD TRUMP AND THE HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES -  By Bernard Bujold -  The United States has always been very polarized, and while some think the Donald Trump era is the most divided, you only have to look at History to see the opposite.  The Abraham Lincoln era (1861-65) was probably the most violent, with the debate over the end of slavery. The era of George Washington (1789-1797) was also turbulent, as the United States was beginning to create its own country, with many states seeking independence from the central government.  Donald Trump's political debate is similar to Lincoln's and Washington's in terms of polarization, but there are different personalities. All three men were great orators, but while Donald Trump is energetic and on the attack, Lincoln was known for his ability to forgive and seek reconciliation. Washington was a gentleman, but like Trump, he was very nationalistic about the United States.  The November 2024 election will be a highly polarized

THE WARRIORS' FEAST -  By Bernard Bujold - On this Monday, May 27, 2024, the United States celebrates Memorial Day, a day of commemoration observed in honor of soldiers who have died in the service of their country. Ultimately, all war is a sad act of destruction, but since the beginning of mankind, there have always been wars. A country can't survive without an army, as evidenced by the Acadians deported in 1755 because they had no army.  And wars are not about to disappear, as we're now talking about wars in space for the control of satellites...  SEE THE REPORT FROM THE WALL STREET JOURNAL  https://www.wsj.com/politics/national-security/space-weapons-us-space-force-russia-china-abf1cc16?st=jkpbw8js2bn5ebt&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink

LA VIE ÉTERNELLE -  Par Bernard Bujold-  S’il y a un élément qui représente la vie éternelle, c’est l’eau. En effet, quiconque observe une fontaine peut constater l’éternité perpétuelle du mouvement de l’eau. Le trajet de l’eau d’une fontaine démontre bien ce qu’est la vie et l’histoire de l’humanité, une constante répétition!  Bon printemps 2024!  https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?vanity=bernard.bujold&set=a.10168746663970541

DONALD TRUMP - THE MODERN HERO - By Bernard Bujold- Donald Trump can be described as a "modern hero". He is the Robin Hood of 2024, and the verdict of the New York trial will confirm his title of hero.  "An acquittal will vindicate him and a guilty verdict will martyr him."  The definition of hero comes from Greek and means, "war leader", then passing through Latin where the word designated a " half-god", the term became today by extension a "man of great worth".  SEE ANALYSIS IN THE NEW YORK TIMES  https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/20/us/politics/trump-trial-2024-election.html?unlocked_article_code=1.tk0.V8ME.iZvBanZ4xLgO&smid=url-share

LES PATRIOTES EN 2024 -  Par Bernard Bujold - On peut comparer la rébellion des Patriotes québécois de 1837-1838 aux guerres de 2024 entre la Russie et l'Ukraine et entre Israël et la Palestine. Dans toutes les guerres, le succès dépend des armes disponibles. Le mieux armé gagne!  Ce fut le cas avec les Patriotes qui n'avaient pas réussi à obtenir de la part de leurs voisins les Américains les armes en quantité supérieure à ce dont disposaient les Anglais de Londres, comme ce fut le cas avec mes ancêtres Acadiens lors de la déportation de 1755 alors que les Anglais avaient des armes et les Acadiens que des outils agricoles (fourches et râteaux de bois)...  Au final, les guerres ne sont que destruction, mais on doit reconnaître qu'elles ont toujours été incontournables, et ce depuis les débuts de l'humanité!  Bonne Fête des Patriotes!  VOIR ROMAN JULES VERNE SUR LES PATRIOTES TÉLÉCHARGEMENT GRATUIT DU ROMAN FAMILLE-SANS-NOM  beq.ebooksgratuits.com/vents/Verne-famille.pd
