The Story of the Donkey and Tiger
The donkey told the tiger:
′′The grass is blue".
The tiger replied:
′′No, the grass is green".
The discussion became heated up, and the two decided to submit the issue to arbitration, and to do so they approached the lion, King of the Jungle.
Before reaching the clearing in the forest where the lion was sitting on his throne, the donkey started screaming:
′′Your Highness, is it true that grass is blue?".
The lion replied:
"True, the grass is blue".
The donkey rushed forward and continued:
′′The tiger disagrees with me and contradicts me and annoys me please punish him".
The king then declared:
′′The tiger will be punished with 5 years of silence".
The donkey jumped for joy and went on his way, content and repeating:
′′The grass is blue"...
The tiger accepted his punishment, but he asked the lion:
′′Your Majesty, why have you punished me, after all, the grass is green?"
The lion replied:
′′In fact, the grass is green".
The tiger asked:
′′So why do you punish me?"
The lion replied:
′′That has nothing to do with the question of whether the grass is blue or green. The punishment is because it is not possible for a brave, intelligent creature like you to waste time arguing with a donkey, and on top of that to come and bother me with that question".
The worst waste of time is arguing with the fool and fanatic who doesn't care about truth or reality, but only the victory of their beliefs and illusions. Never waste time on discussions that make no sense... There are people who for all the evidence presented to them, do not have the ability to understand, and others who are blinded by ego, hatred and resentment, and the only thing that they want is to be right even if they aren’t. When ignorance screams, intelligence shuts up. Your peace and tranquility are worth more.

McCarthy Reveals What Trump Told Him When He Had Gold-Star Family in Office: 'He Didn't Want Anyone to Know'

Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy recently revealed a heartwarming story about Donald Trump that reveals a charitable and warm side of the usually blunt ex-president that people don’t often hear about.

Appearing on Donald Trump Jr.’s podcast, McCarthy talked about the time Donald Trump quietly performed a kindness to a Gold-Star family visiting Washington D.C. after Trump’s presidency had ended.

In August of 2021, 11 Marines, one member of the U.S. Army and one Navy Corpsman were killed in a suicide bombing at the airport in Kabul during Joe Biden’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan. Following the disaster, the family members of one of those fallen were in D.C., the House speaker said.

McCarthy said that the Gold-Star family was in his office at the time and noted that they had checked into Trump’s Washington, D.C., hotel. After their visit, McCarthy said he telephoned the former president to let him know that the family had specifically sought out Trump’s hotel during their trip to D.C.

But, unlike how Biden has treated Gold-Star families, Trump didn’t just blithely take the compliment and move on with his life.

As McCarthy explained, Trump took action.

“[Trump] gets on the phone with me and this is what he says: ‘I’m going to go call the manager. You tell them I’m picking up their tab.’ He didn’t want anybody to know. He didn’t put it on Truth. He didn’t put out a tweet. He told me privately, and he pays for it. And that’s the thing nobody sees about him,” McCarthy said.

Do you think Biden would have done the same thing as Trump?
Yes: 2% (146 Votes)
HELL No: 98% (5810 Votes)

The Speaker’s revelation comes at about 53 minutes into the Trump Jr. podcast:

Many Twitter users jumped to social media to praise Trump for his quiet act of kindness.

Whether you like Donald Trump as a person or not, you can’t deny that his repeated acts of small kindnesses like this are a big deal when few others in his position ever perform such niceties. And Trump does this all the time. Stories like this — always told by others — abound.

Just last week, for instance, he reached out to Rochelle “Silk” Richardson and told her he was paying for the funeral of Lynette “Diamond” Hardaway, a fact that Trump never once made public knowledge.

Indeed, we all didn’t learn about Trump’s generosity until Richardson told everyone about it.

Not only did Trump heavily promote the ceremony for his friend on his Truth Social platform, but during the ceremony, Richardson praised Trump for picking up the cost of the celebration of life ceremony and whatever funeral arrangements Richardson thought would be best for her dear sister.

Trump has been performing these examples of altruism for years. The Daily Mail, for instance, told of one such story back in 2016, before Trump even became president of the United States.

Then there was the former Trump campaign worker who was invited to the 2017 inaugural celebration because the president had read a story about the man’s financial troubles and wanted to help out, CBS News reported at the time. When campaign volunteer Shane Bouvet met the new president at the event, Trump surprised the man with a $10,000 check to help him out. It was a story that Donald Trump never told anyone, and one that only came out because Bouvet told the media about it all.

Even as Democrats repeatedly dehumanize their opponents — especially Trump — stories like these have surrounded Donald Trump for years, going back long before his days on TV and in politics.

Curiously, there are no such stories like these about lifelong politicians such as Joe Biden, Barack Obama or even the multimillionaire Bush family. But it is just an example of how good Donald Trump is, especially given that he does not toot his own horn about his many quiet acts of kindness.

Here's another recent encounter nobody knows about:

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/trump-seen-praying-with-south-carolina-restaurant-employee-during-campaign-stop/ar-AA16Sq31

Former President Donald Trump prayed with an emotional South Carolina restaurant worker during a campaign stop, a viral video showed.

Trump approached the counter at Zesto of West Columbia on Saturday and asked a female employee if she recommends the food as the worker records the ex-president with her cellphone camera.

"Yes sir," the employee at the counter responds before asking, "Do you care if I pray for you?"

"Go ahead," Trump says before the woman holds his hand and asks God to watch over him, the video shows.

The video spread like wildfire on social media, racking up more than 2 million views by Sunday afternoon.

"This is the real @realDonaldTrump the media won’t show you!" deputy director of communications for Save America and Trump tweeted of the scene.

Trump was in Columbia, South Carolina, on Saturday to campaign for his 2024 presidential run, after he campaigned in New Hampshire earlier that day.

During his remarks in the state, Trump took issue with Hunter Biden's business dealings, argued President Biden is taking the U.S. to the "brink of World War III," and railed against critical race theory and transgender issues.

"We’re going to stop the left-wing radical racists and perverts who are trying to indoctrinate our youth and we’re going to get their Marxist hands off of our children," he said.

Trump received the endorsements of top South Carolina Republicans Saturday, such as Gov. Henry McMaster and Sen. Lindsey Graham.

"There are no Trump policies without Donald Trump," Graham said during the event.

"You can talk about his policies, but you cannot do what he did."

Fox News Digital reached out to Zesto for comment but did not immediately receive a reply.
