8. I have much less faith in the average citizen than I used to.

American history is a long record of stupid votes, corrupt bargains and ugly truths. Trump won because of a corrupt bargain made 230 years ago. I told you it wasn't fair.

We have the misfortune of living through the dumbest Presidential campaign ever. 2020 will not be much better. To win, we are going to need somebody who can win at the rules as they are now, which requires skills Hillary doesn't have.

The most qualified doesn't always win. Clearly.

It's has to be someone who can both shake up our country and go toe to toe with Trump in all his narcissistic cruelty.

Politics is unfair game with stupid rules. marylandblue Mar 2019 #1
