    Peter Sekovski, Author, Why They Hate Trump, A DotCom Magazine Exclusive Interview

    About Peter Sekovski and Why They Hate Trump:As a decisive leader with a nationally recognized track record of success in resolving issues, improving efficiencies, increasing revenues, and reducing cost in general operational environments, I understand the importance of results. My ability to analyze processes, pinpoint opportunities and successfully motivate others, combined with my own experiences have helped immeasurably in creating win/win negotiations and high impact performers, serving as a change agent and a passionate contributor to lead teams to achieve significant organizational successes.I attribute my leadership successes and business ethos to my own unique experiences; my father escaped communist Yugoslavia, and eventually landed in America, the place of his dreams. My parents were from two different countries, so along with their native tongues, I learned English as my third language. In our home, there were three ways of doing things, and thus, Yugoslavian, Swedish, and American cultures were tightly intertwined. This upbringing instilled in me an intuitive ability to view situations from multiple perspectives and remain culturally fluid. Being this fluid opens up all parties to superior levels of collaboration, problem-solving, creative thinking, and innovation. I rarely, if ever, come to an impasse with people because I am empathetic to other viewpoints- empathy is far better than ego!Donald Trump. Just the mention of his name evokes enthusiasm and joy or hatred and rage. Trump has created loyal supporters and raving fans, but there are also mortal enemies dedicated to his demise. Far beyond rational disagreements regarding policy, there has emerged a visceral abhorrence and hostility towards him. The question is why? Why are some so enraged with this man? Why is there so much unrestrained hatred towards Trump? Never before have we seen such a concentration of outright hatred and animosity towards a politician. It is an amazing and disturbing phenomenon to observe. With so much raw emotion and with everything becoming politicized, it’s hard to decipher exactly why such hatred exists. In this first of three volumes, the author explains the many reasons people choose to hate this man. Why They Hate Trump will hopefully bring some clarity to this current cultural sensation.

    Jay McElroy, Author, Lunch Box Poetry, A DotCom Magazine Exclusive Interview

    About Jay McElroy and Lunch Box Poetry: Jay McElroy grew up in Texas and was very active throughout his early years, playing football, baseball and basketball. After his high school years had been completed, he moved on to Texas A&M University, majoring in electrical engineering and graduating at the age of 21. He spent the next 15 years as an electrical engineer and ultimately a project manager for a major oil company in the oil fields of Alaska up on the Arctic Ocean. He then left the corporate world and started his own Alaskan business that he still works to this day. And it was during the early years of this phase of his life that he began to write notes and short poems for his daughters and would periodically drop these poems in their lunchboxes before they went to school that day. And lo and behold, he had actually stashed some of these short poems away in a folder in the back of his office file cabinet and inadvertently discovered this folder about a year ago. Thus, the beginning of the idea for Lunchbox Poetry!!
