Hey Daniel, I don't think Mr. Trump has any problem finding his breakout in the 
open space of the contemporary world. I find the issue exactly to be that he

He's being a space invader. How do you handle a space invader? Maybe if we both 
gave him a big hug.

If we invite the uninviting and love the unlovely, the rest is up to them.

Isn't that how opening space actually goes?
