People with long memories and a vivid sense of the past have an immediate understanding of politicians like Donald Trump.

We have a shotgun we inherited from my father-in-law, a paranoid Englishman living in Texas. I have a .22 Marlin rifle, similar to the one Annie Oakley had, and my husband has a .357 Magnum pistol.
