Crappy Day, Worst President?, Democrat Infighting, First US Case
Hey there all, I hope your day is going great! My day has been alright except my stomach started messing with me later in the day. Stomach problems are never much fun but it's just something that happens for me and for people in chairs. It was like a heatwave here, got up to the mid 30's and the sun came out and melted a lot of the snow. That's good but the weather forecast over the next three days is saying we are getting a mix of snow and rain, possibly freezing rain. I was hoping we were done with this crap till next season. We've been lucky here I guess over the last so many years because we have had mild winters but if it does snow or ice much more it'll be the most we have had in a long time here. At least that's how I feel. So, let me get into it!
History Day! I just read a good article arguing that John Tyler, the 10th president of this great country, as being the worst president in office. Not so sure about that but there is a good case for such things. It was very chaotic when William Henry Harrison, who was elected as the 9th president, passed away a month after taking the oath of office. At that time the Constitution was not real clear on what to do when a president dies in office, it did not say if a vice president should take the office but it did say that they should take the former presidents powers. He was basically kicked out of his own party, the Whigs, because there was so much hostility. His cabinet even quit on him. Here is my last thing about the man, he still has 2 living grandchildren. That is hard to believe as he was born in 1795. Tyler had 15 kids with 2 wives. I think that is crazy. Here is that article; https://www.history.com/news/john-tyler-most-unpopular-president
I don't have a dog in this fight since I definitely will not be voting democrat in November, or much any time really. But I think it's kinda funny when they go to tear each other down, even ones who are not in the race. There is some historical significance to this though from 2016 when Hilary Clinton schemed her way into being the favorite of the democrats by outing Bernie Sanders. Now there is a movement by people to be divided between the two on Twitter and it's really pretty funny. Twitter spats are always fun cause I mostly stay out of them. But here is the article where I found all this; https://www.newsweek.com/ilikebernie-trends-after-hillary-clinton-says-nobody-likes-bernie-sanders-1483273
Here is an update from something I talked about yesterday, the coronavirus outbreak has now spread to America. The first American case is in Washington state. The man is said to be doing well but is being kept isolated from others as a precaution. We don't want this spreading here in America. Here is an article highlighting this; cnn.com/2020/01/21/health/wuhan-coronavirus-first-us-case-cdc-bn/index.html
That's all for me tonight. I really hope that all of you have a great night or day, take care!
