8. Gotta say, this is only like an infected boil as long as Donald's around to aggravate things.

I find it helpful to remind myself that the Donald WILL NOT last forever. Repeat: WILL NOT!

That “side of the aisle” may not have fully grasped that yet. He WON’T be around for very much longer. And there’s already gossip and talk about how much weaker and more beset with problems he is - compared to 10 years ago.

There are some, maybe many, in the GOP who are already looking and scheming ahead to the next rounds of elections. Already planning. Already searching the field for “the next Donald”, or, hell, the next Whoever to come along and out-Reagan Reagan.

I hope to God our Dems are looking at the long game, planning, AND recruiting, too. They damn well better be.
