Great piece! Loved this—because it describes one of our ex-presidents perfectly: “A vain man, a frightened man, a bigoted man, or an angry man, cannot laugh at himself or be laughed at; but the man who can laugh at himself or be laughed at has taken another step towards the perfect sanity which brings peace on earth and good will to men.”
I think it was Stephen Colbert who observed that he'd never seen Trump truly laugh, and certainly not at himself.
I think we need a philanthropic movement to fund humor.
Amazing stuff Jack. To smile, to giggle, to laugh, and not to yield... (I'll keep working on this)

Oh my god Grant, you're so right, that description fits him like a glove!
