Okay, everybody. Hi. Great to be with you. Isn't that funny for me to say great to be with you?

In what sense am I with you? Well, I really am with you, but I'm not physically with you.

But I am with you. Anyway, I analyze everything, so forgive me. It's a very straight beginning,

but the whole thing's spontaneous. On behalf of Otto, I welcome you. And Otto welcomes you on behalf of me.

What's he doing? Oh, he's awake. This is a major moment, David. Fire side shot.

It's a special dog. All right, everybody. So what I do each week, and we haven't missed in years now. Wow.

Is offer you some thoughts about life or about current events, and then take your questions.

So I have an interesting question and an important one. I'm not going to address the whole issue of the American elections being honest, not honestly counted.

I just want to address one interesting moral question that is worth thinking about.

Donald Trump has been accused by all of the left, Democratic Party, the various newspapers, and social media, and so on, for four years of being a white supremacist, a fascist, and a dictator.

Right? I mean, that's normative accusations of Donald Trump.

So if you are counting ballots, you're a Democrat in a Democratic controlled city and an area precinct or county,

and you have the chance to cheat with regard to the voting count, and you believe that Donald Trump is a fascist and a white supremacist and a dictator, why wouldn't you cheat?

I would. I admit it. If I were counting votes in any country, and I believed that a candidate that I could stop from winning by cheating was a fascist and a white supremacist and a dictator, I would cheat.

I mean, just there were times when cheating or lying is moral. If I were saving a Jew, I was hiding a Jew in Nazi-occupied Europe, and the Nazis came to the door and said, are you hiding a Jew? I would lie. It would be the right thing to do.

Preventing a fascist white supremacist dictator from becoming the leader of a country is the right thing to do.

So I'm not making any accusation. I am only saying that there is no moral reason why a Democratic operative in a voting count,

in a voting center, wouldn't feel morally obligated to cheat. So either they have been saying these things just to attack the president, or they, and not really believe it, just said it for effect, or they really believe it, and I think many of them really believe it.

So what's to stop them? Not morality, just to thought.

Another subject related to, not to the count, but related to the issue of how Americans are getting along. Right after the 2016 election, the New York Times, when Donald Trump was elected president to everybody's shock, including, I don't know what I might add.

There was a front page article in the New York Times about a week later, because in the United States, and I'm saying this because a lot of you are outside of the United States, in the United States, we have the big holiday of Thanksgiving, a few weeks after election day.

And the article in the New York Times noted that Thanksgiving was going to be disrupted in many homes, because a lot of people were not prepared to have a Thanksgiving dinner with a friend or relative who had voted for Donald Trump.
