    Nope. Northern Lower Michigan is a different kettle of fish from the U.P. Hell, Kalkaska was destroying its public schools well before it became fashionable to do so -- they had a school year end in March one year in the mid-90s because the district just went broke.

    What makes anyone think that Trump will abandon his family and start making smart political hires?

    As for the base, they're entrenched. They believe that current job numbers and booming economy are solely because of Trump. They believe the border is more secure right now, solely because of Trump. They believe that globalization is awful and they love that Trump's entire agenda is America first. They believe he has done more to fight ISIS in six months than Obama did in eight years. They're not going anywhere.

    Oh my God! They denied a cancer researcher -- with a visa -- from entering the country.





    What possible reason could there be for such an action?

    Oh.

    An Iranian cancer researcher who was denied entry to the U.S. previously headed a student branch of volunteer paramilitary militia, footage aired on state television Thursday showed.
    ...
    The U.S. Customs and Border Patrol has said the family's detention was for "reasons unrelated" to President Donald Trump's executive order on travelers from several predominantly Muslim countries, including Iran. It did not say why specifically the family was turned back.
    ...
    The state TV footage showed that Dehnavi was the same man who was featured in a years-old report by the semi-official Fars news agency on his being named the head of the student branch of the Basij at Iran's Sharif University in September 2007. The Basij is a volunteer militia that is linked to Iran's Revolutionary Guard.

    Iranian researcher denied US entry has ties to militia

    Why didn't the Globe or Secretary Kerry mention this little fact?
