Nixon and Drumpt: It's always the number 18
Nixon had 18 minutes of tape unaccounted for, and Drumpt has 18 days he can't explain. Let's hope we get the same outcome. More quickly, however.

In Hebrew, chai means LIFE. (think about the toast "l'chaim...to life"
In Hebrew numerology, when words/letters are converted to numbers, chai is 18.
This is why it is traditional in many Jewish communities to make donations and gifts in multiples of 18...to bring life to the contribution.
In hindsight, 18 minutes was a big part of creating life after Nixon.
I can only hope 18 days is the beginning of life after Trump.
L'chaim.
