I try to be a positive guy, especially when it comes to grammar. I believe a rising tide lifts all ships and that there is more than enough good grammar to go around. If you came on my grammar talk show equivalent of “Oprah,” I’d be on stage yelling, “Look under your seats! You get good gram…
March came early this year for President Biden. He came into 2022 like a lion. The danger for him is that he may find himself going out like a lamb.
