There was a story on the front page of the Herald sports section (Jan. 26) regarding the health risks associated with being a head coach in the NFL.
How true, how true. Gary Kubiak is to be admired for using common sense. I was in management in retail for 25 years. I had a heart attack at 65 and I have been retired since.
The point is, our beloved president, Donald J. Trump, is a prime candidate for such an event. He was in business and he was able to issue orders which were followed without question or he could utter his famous phrase, “You’re fired.”
Government doesn’t work that way. Trump is 70 years old, overweight, trying to run a country of 300 million people 24/7 with an employee force of 2 million. He tries to micromanage every detail. He doesn’t get much exercise except an occasional round of golf (if he has time now that he is in office).
He is up at three in the morning issuing his famous opinions via Twitter which have no effect except to make the stock market fluctuate.
His knee-jerk reactions to no-news items is dangerous for a man his age, I know.
Someone tell him to slow down and learn to delegate responsibility. I hope Mr. Pence is in good shape; we may need him some day.
