The Year Was 2017–Donald Trump became president…Harvey Weinstein was sentenced for sexual assault…mass shootings happened at a church in Sutherland Springs, Texas and an outdoor concert in Las Vegas, Nevada…new television programs included “The Good Doctor,” “SEAL Team” and “Young Sheldon”…movies included “The Boss Baby”…and on the pop music charts, we listened to “It Ain’t My Fault” by Brothers Osbourne, “Body Like A Back Road” by Sam Hunt, and Jon Pardi’s “Dirt On My Boots”.
