I remember now; Jordan Goodspeed.

You did seem more reasonable and thoughful than I remember, as if you actually thought Trump could do some constructive things. Most Trump voters don't want that. Of course, I think you'll be disappointed if you do.

That's the one, Eric.  Good job!

I figured the birthdate would do the trick, given time.  I know you had run a chart on me, at least once.

Yes, I choose to hold out hope that Trump would do some of the things he promised on the campaign trail, as most presidents manage to do, because I think some of those things could do a bit of good.  I also think this without regard to whether or not I think he is a particularly nice person, which I don't really feel is relevant.

Whether he will do them or not, how they are implemented, what other things he ends up doing, in short, how his presidency turns out, remains to be seen.

As for my reasonableness and thoughtfulness more generally, why, I don't think I was ever so bad in that regard as you may remember.  I will allow that the last year has been reasonably good to me, improving my mood, and that I am consciously choosing to avoid discussions here that would tend to draw forth more heat than light on my end, as it were.

OK, good luck with that. The birth sign and birth year (generation) did help jog my memory. (and of course, the basic notion of a maverick conservative with a temper, who is not well-disposed toward Eric)
