Elliott Brack’s Perspective
BRACK: The coming of fall and enjoying college football
By Elliott Brack | There’re many reasons to enjoy the fall season. There is the cooler weather, the turning leaves, the return to a more normal-than-summer schedule….and college football. The best part of college football is that you can sit in your own television chair and virtually have a front row seat for the best games of that day, in essence enjoying several top games.
BRACK: It was an amazing performance Tuesday by Kamala
By Elliott Brack | Should there be another debate, we suspect Mr. Trump won’t do much better, but will continue to flub around, go off in many directions, and continue to throw off utterances that often make little sense. And observer after observer noted again that Trump pumped out false facts (“lies”) time and time again.
