THE WEEK

1. Trump starts ‘thank you’ tour through states he won
President-elect Donald Trump, most of his cabinet picks in place, kicks off his “Trump USA Thank You Tour 2016”on Thursday with a massive rally at the U.S. Bank Arena in Cincinnati. Earlier in the day, Trump and Vice President-elect Mike Pence, the governor of Indiana, will hold an event in Indianapolis with Carrier Corp, the heating and air-conditioning company that agreed this week to keep at least 800 jobs in Indiana that it had planned to move to Mexico. No details have yet been released on the price of keeping those jobs in Indiana, and hundreds of workers at the plant could still lose their jobs. Trump’s victory tour will focus on states where he beat his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton, in the election.

About Dr. Rex

I'm originally from Puerto Rico. I was born in Santurce and raised in Rio Piedras. Have lived in Florida since 1999. I have a doctorate degree in Medicine; completed in 1976. My Internal Medicine specialty was completed in 1979. Worked for Puerto Rico's health system until 1985. At this time, I'm happily retired after working for the federal government for almost 28yrs. I want to offer any knowledge that I have to anyone "out there" who is interested. My views are liberal in almost every sense. My knowledge is "eclectic" - a bit of everything. Music and reading are my passion. Blogging has also become a very interesting endeavor. Metaphysical topics attract me. I'm interested in news reporting human issues like injustice, discrimination and abuse - the "wrongly" affected. My intention is to bring this knowledge to an understandable level and to help anyone in need. I'm open to questions and will answer them to the best of my ability. Currently working on an enterprise whose main mission will be to bring peoples of all walks of life together. To be one .... since we ALL are ONE!! The future looks bright and promising!!!

  1. This is a great post. I was so enraged by the first item that I couldn’t read any further. What more does Trump have to do to prove he is unfit! Is my country so stupid as to think the rest of the World is watching this with anything less than mortification while at the same time discussing strategies for containing our sickness?

  2. I have given up hope for this country… too many self righteous, narcissistic, hypocrites who are too stupid to know they are stupid who vote people like this and the rest of the GOP leadership into power.

    • My dear friend Kira … I’m there with you! I haven’t been my usual self since Nov. 8 … I can’t believe this. I’m 5 of the things the leaders will work against: retired senior, female, Hispanic, woman & LGBT … trying to plan my future steps. One good thing: I’m not young? I’m on the way out. Hugs!
      ‘I’m not ready to make nice’ … I’m not a sore loser. I’m an intelligent, sentient being!
