Most people know what going “dutch-treat” means. (Each person shares to the penny how much they spent on their own meal, for instance).
So what do I mean by double-dutched? What this signifies is how little is known about the New Netherlands, or New Amsterdam (not the tv show). It’s easy.
Think AJ (by that I do mean the 7th president – President Andrew Jackson. Read: “To the victor belong the spoils.”
Apparently, one of New York Senator’s — William L. Marcy — said it referring to the 1828 election, not President Jackson.
I wonder why Trump’s.father decided to deny his German lineage and went for Sweden instead of Holland or the Netherlands). Trump, Tromp could’ve been Dutch.
I wonder even more what picture will adorn the Oval Office in 2025? Will we have a “repeat?”
I suppose Trump could put up his own official portrait. Not many presidents have skipped a beat and get a four year respite to learn.
