Key West Lou / ANOTHER RESTAURANT CHAIN CLOSES DOWN A NUMBER OF LOCATIONS

Another restaurant chain has closed down a number of locations. TGI Fridays announced nearly 50 locations have been closed down. Rumor has it the chain is considering bankruptcy amid monetary debts.

TGI Fridays had 250 locations at the start of the year. Last week, 213. Today, 164.

Not a healthy track record.

Based on the many comments yesterday, Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally was an absolute failure. Campaign hierarchy were all over the place yesterday trying to correct the many errors speakers had made.

Stephen Miller was one of the speakers. A strange duck. He has Jewish blood. His Jewish grandparents immigrated to the U.S. Yet he is anti-Semitic and anti-immigrant. He was Trump’s speech writer when President and now continues to guide Trump re immigration. He evidences a nationalism that places him in the Hitler camp. He promotes “America for Americans only.” Hitler used to say “Germany for Germans only.”

He reminds me of Joseph Goebbels in thought and appearance. I have written this several times in the past.

Bess Levin in a Vanity Fair 10/28/24 article said: “Do not say he didn’t warn you.” Donald Trump’s racist, misogynistic, antisemitic MSG rally was an explicit preview of a second term.

Trump continues to show us he is considered with boosting himself and using his power for revenge. If so, when will he have time to help ordinary Americans?

I made an error the other day re Jeff Bezos. I thought he only owned a piece of the Washington Post. Not so. He owns one hundred percent of the Washington Post.

Tonight, Kamala Harris speaks at the Ellipse in Washington, D.C. The place from which Trump made his January 6 speech. I am confident Harris’ speech will be a humdinger. She has come a long way in a short time. She has established her credibility to be President.

Democracy had its beginnings late in the 6th century B.C. in Athens. It was known as the “demokratia.”

“Black Tuesday.” October 19, 1929. The New York Stock Exchange collapsed. Many investors wiped out.

Another Abraham Lincoln quote. He had a way with words: “Honestly, if I were two-faced, would I be showing you this one?”

Yankees down 3 games to the Dodgers. Does not look good for the Yankees. Game 4 tonight. The Dodgers could sew up the series. If not tonight, another time soon. A 3 game edge too much to overcome.

I close with my day. This afternoon a visit with a neurologist. My back. Norris thinks I may have a disc problem. If it isn’t one thing, it’s another. Better than another heart attack, however.

Following the doctor visit, I will be at The Grand for Happy Hour.

Enjoy your day!
