Like it or not, America affects us all and the President affects America.
The Republican Party has nominated Donald Trump as their man and this afternoon our time he will accept.
If you want to zoom out just a bit, the party is run these days by Lara, his daughter-in-law.
"Make America Great Again" has been officially adopted by the party as its slogan and all the people within the party who swore he was trouble lined up this week to praise him.
It’s the Donald Trump party and say whatever you want about him and his politics, but what he has managed to do is little short of miraculous. He is a force of nature.
After Saturday, he will most likely win the election and create more history.
God has played a role this week and whether you believe or not, something extraordinary has happened. Not only did he survive a shooting, the courts have turned as well.
Florida is off until after the election, Georgia is delayed until after the election and the Supreme Court kind of agrees with him on immunity. Even New York and the sentencing, which really has nothing to do with his presidential life, is delayed.
You can't write this stuff.
Then in a turn of events you also can't write, we have a week where the conspiracy theorists went literally more mental than they already were.
Biden says he might step aside if a medical issue prevented him from running, and then promptly goes and gets Covid, which, you guessed it, will lead to him having complications, which will lead to speculation, which will lead to him pulling out.
And, and, and surely, it's at this point Michelle Obama joins in and saves the day.
Oh also, the kid who shot Trump had no profile, no background, he's a plant that was paid off. As I say, you can't write this stuff.
And yet, at least some of it is real and some of it will drive the world who-knows-where over the next handful of years
Oh, and JD Vance, to cap it off, is a poor kid who wrote a book, got it made into a movie, went into business and became Vice President, potentially. He lived the American dream. Can you make a movie about the movie?
It’s a mix between Shakespearian mystery and high farce. A complex drama and a circus act.
It's so good you can't take your eyes off it.

Sick to death of seeing the the nonsense continually on every news channel 24/7. USA citizens just love their razzmatazz, OK, but why does the world have to be saturated with the same. It's now almost a religious passage of time with Trump the Saviour and the hand of God.
