Having spent my life trying to grow up - not an easy task for anyone - I find it infuriating that my children tend to characterise me as naive or backward or, yes, immature. Perhaps this has ever been the cry of youth - although when I was a teenager, despite the fact I reacted against my parents, I never saw them as immature. This is a very good piece, I think.

Hi Ben, I am a Democrat who tries to write even-handedly about the problem of Trump and the Republican Party's surrender to his demagoguery. I look forward to reading your pieces.

I also invite you to subscribe to mine and to provide me with hard-hitting feedback any time the spirit moves you.
