The local politics guy was talking to I think a Dallas city council member. He was blaming everything on the high price of tickets, which I’m sure is part of it, but I was yelling “AND?…….AND?…..AND?…..” at the TV.

Not one word about worldwide negative feelings about Trump, cost of visas, fear of dealing with U.S. border patrol and not even a mention of skyrocketing travel costs since Donny’s little “excursion” in Iran.

The “news” is useless.
