        Why a Pro-Trump Town No Longer Sees Him as a Rescuer.  (The New York Times, 10/3/2020)
        Portsmouth, Ohio, was facing hard times when our reporter spent a week there leading up to Election Day 2016. She went back to find the town rebounding, and loyal to President Trump. But its residents no longer tie their fortunes to him.

        Garbin (top, second from left) was born in 1995 and is a resident of Hartland Township (Court documents also allege he has property in Luther and Cadillac, Michigan). Federal charging documents said Garbin was a member of a militia group leadership and met Fox  (top left) at a Second Amendment rally at the state Capitol in Lansing.

          The popularity of Stephen as a baby name is graphed here.  Let's take a look at Lucille.



          Lucille spent 38 years (1900-37) in the top 100, peaking at #27 in 1919.  After that, not even the immense popularity of the 1950s sitcom "I Love Lucy" could keep her afloat.   Since 2003, she's attempted a comeback, but that effort seems to have peaked in 2017.
