Telemarketers just might have an issue with Jesus


Last Saturday, I had my oil changed. A practice I maintain quarterly. I had brought a few books to read while I sat in the waiting area. My plan was to read my books and drink coffee. Other than myself, two elderly women also waited on their cars. Both were likely in their late 60s or early 70s. They discussed diets, the military, telemarketers and door-to-door salesman. I set my books downs and listened to their conversation. I will refer to them as Blanche and Dorothy. First, they started with Donald Trump.

“I love Donald Trump, he’s my man,” Blanche said, “I love how he speaks his mind without fear.”

Dorothy agreed. “Right, he’s a businessman who has made billions. He has built and sold companies. He’s a man you want running the country.”

Blanche and Dorothy then discussed how the government doesn’t take care of its military veterans. One of the ladies referred to the Vietnam veterans who returned with Post-traumatic stress disorder. Many became homeless, committed suicide, battled drugs, and turned to alcoholism.
