May 14 is coming up awfully fast and it’s been going back and forth whether President Trump will be there in Jerusalem for the ribbon cutting of the U.S. Embassy.

After all, it was his signature, Dec. 6, 2017  -- when he declared Jerusalem the capital of Israel --that was part one of an historic process.

Now it’s time to seal the deal with part two and as we know, showing up is what life is all about – so why the dithering?

Late word has it that he won’t attend the opening. If so, I think he needs to change his mind, for his own good.

What’s keeping him here in the United States? The news is never good, not for him and not for the millions who voted for him and keep rooting for him.

I can’t imagine what it’s like being in his shoes when every day in America starts with Robert Mueller and ends with Stormy Daniels.

No end in sight from these Democrats and their media enablers whose only goal is to make life miserable for all of us in the United States.
s that all there is? Pretty much. As for Rudy – another headache.

How about getting away from it all, Mr. President – you’d be doing Israel a great favor and as for the rest of us, we need a break.

We need fresh pictures and new headlines. Jerusalem is a gorgeous setting and they love you over there, far more than what you’re getting back here at home.   

Call it a vacation. We could use one, too.

America can’t take another day, another week, another month, another year, four more years, eight more years of this Russia probe.

No end in sight from these Democrats and their media enablers whose only goal is to make life miserable for all of us in the United States… because?

Because we had the chutzpah to vote Trump. For that they will not forgive.

They will keep punishing us until they’ve got us totally demoralized and splattered with the same mud – the mud both James Comey and Adam Schiff keep slinging coast to coast as if slander were a virtue. Comey’s dirt-spewing book tour – that is a special humiliation for himself and for the nation, where we find ourselves, with Trump, in an Inquisitorial nightmare.

This is the Red Scare, HUAC and McCarthyism all over again. Any man who sipped vodka with Trump even 30 years ago is suspect. This is hysteria.

Will he or won’t he? That is the cliffhanger, the question of the hour. Will Trump sit for an interview with Grand Inquisitor Robert Mueller or won’t he?

Why should he? Which one of these two got elected? Which one is president? Which one is boss?

Trump doesn’t owe them anything. Jerusalem, however, that he owes as a favor for himself and for the Israel, certified positively Jewish through Jerusalem by his own hand.
