SHAMAS

The word for policeman in modern Hebrew is shamas. The original meaning of shamas is helper because a policeman is a person who helps others. Derek Chauvin is not and was not a shamas.

A SUMMARY OF TRUMP'S FAILINGS

Donald Trump, as president of the USA, disregarded the truth, disregarded the American people, and disregarded American democracy. He is a con-man whose only interest is promoting himself no matter what the consequences for others. That is how he acted in business as well as politics. Fortunately for the rest of us, he failed because he was not smart enough to fool all of of us all of the time (to paraphrase Abraham Lincoln).
