There was more heavy industry than you might expect in Lubbock, Texas, in the 1970s and 1980s, when I was growing up there. It was pretty unglamorous stuff: things related to cotton processing, a dogfood plant, etc. The crown jewels were a Frito-Lay factory, which could smell really good or really … not good … depending on what was being made at the time, and a Texas Instruments home-computer factory, which produced the once-ubiquitous TI99 at a rate of 5,000 a day.

Politics makes strange bedfellows, but not as strange as global economic meltdowns do. “Alliance” is entirely the wrong word to describe what happened over the last week between the president and Never Trumpers like me, but it’s fair to call it an “alignment.” A meeting of the minds, if you will. Trump voters are grousing that this [gesturing at the rubble] isn’t what they voted for.
