One of the most contentious claims Donald Trump ever made was his insistence that he had been the target of spying. He made the charge in several different ways. For example, in March 2017, Trump, just two months in office, tweeted: "Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my 'wires tapped' in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!" Two years later, in April 2019, he was less specific but equally adamant when he said, "There was absolutely spying into my campaign." In August 2020, during his Republican National Committee acceptance speech, he said, "Remember this: They spied on my campaign."

I'm so old I can remember when people calling themselves "conservative" thought "cancel culture" was a bad thing. Oh wait, that was last week.

DEAR HARRIETTE: My sister just moved into a new home with her boyfriend of 10 years. They have three kids, and he is a really active father. He does everything with the kids, so she doesn't have to do much. Even after he has provided a home and helped her buy a car, she continually complains that it's not good enough. She says it's not a luxury car or the house isn't big enough, but it's all better than anything she's ever had. She wants him to marry her, but he confided in me that he is unhappy with her and feels really unloved. How do I tell her this? – Marry Me Not
