That was one of the best things I've read on the internet. A lot of things to think about. Maybe I can start by asking what your takeaway was?

    I follow the President further into the woods. He points to a stump.

    “You know what this is?” he asks me.

    “A stump.”

    “It’s a missile silo disguised as a stump.”

    “No it isn’t.”

    “You’re right, but it’s a good spot for one don’t you think? I’m going to bring it up at the next cabinet meeting.”

    “You do that.”

    I turn to leave.

This author definitely watched a lot of The West Wing at some point in their life.
