        For some reason, I can't picture the history books referring to Steve Bannon, Steve Miller & Seb Gorka as the "three wise men"

        Serious men who took the work seriously. They made many missteps, but they knew it was important. Seems like too much to ask from the Thug.

        Who are the Wise Men of today? In the age of Trump has wisdom become irrelevant?

        They missed their opportunity for real détente in the 90s when they should have let Russia into NATO. Or obolished NATO.

        Trump meets with his "Wise Men" too, Mo, Larry, and Curley. You can throw in Shemp too if you want.

        Those days are long gone. Current POTUS is smarter than any gathering of wise men in the world and is happy to brag about it on Twitter all the time. Sorry, ladies, but you heard his opinion and thoughts about you years ago straight from the horse's a$$ himself.

        Truman confided to "Uncle Joe" at Potsdam that we had detonated an atomic bomb. Stalin already knew it.

        Factoid: Bohlen was relative of Krupp von Bohlen und Halbach dynasty. Great Vignette about him and Schloss Blunbach (now owned by Koch Bros!) In W. Manchester’s book on Krupp.
