Crude oil production will attain the highest annual average production in U.S. history in 2018.
This is probably also a “first” in modern United States History. We truly have a “Metric President”.
If Ms. Clinton had attained the presidency we would have had a “Narrative President” perhaps a bit worse than Trump’s predecessor. Speaking of breaking through glass ceilings provides a warm feeling akin to being seated in front of a crackling fireplace. But it is just that: a crackle.
Narrative-driven presidencies of the past have provided us with socio-cultural shifts without the addition of wealth for vast demographics of American citizens. Crackle.
A Metric President plans his day based on tables and graphs, flow charts, projections, and benchmarks. And everything he does – is based on a need to set mathematical records and shift algorithms into high gear.
Break it down.
DACA, building the wall, removing TPS for Haitians and El Salvadorans is not about a narrative. It comes down to a metric.
When the government shuts down today this is also about a metric and not a narrative. Allow our POTUS to work. Have the patience to understand that Mr. Trump is not a man who crackles. He is a man who roars.
