Great charts, as always. It is a time when things zig just when you think they should zag. But the highlight was Eric Church's commencement address. Unique, and right on the mark.

Absolutely amazing that anyone with or without half a brain can impute to Trump on any of his machinations a plan, a system, a thought out course of action or any premeditated goals is totally out to lunch. Trump does not think, does not plan, does not strategize, does not devise, does not orchestrate or formulate any scheme to follow. Like all narcissists it is all about him and that is all he cares about. To him the Chinese meetings were a total success becasue just look how XI treated him to such honor and pageantry. To equate anything more or further is nonsense!

Value-added as always, thank you (and what a video choice!)

One minor correction:

...he’s transactional, looking for the best outcome for his country / party / allies on any issue, unbound by what predecessors have done or successors may do.

should read:

...he’s transactional, looking for the best outcome for himself on any issue, unbound by what predecessors have done or successors may do.
