The Next President's Term in Office Will Be Transitional

[doompatrol39]

41. Unless we can guarantee 2 terms and a Dem house and Senate...

..we don't need "transitional". We need a hard, vigorous yank to get back to something even close to normalcy.

A nice, pleasant transition after what the Republicans have done isn't going to do anything for this country.

We've had more than 3 decades of 5 steps forward under a Democrat and then 10 steps backwards under a Republican. Only with Trump it's been 30 steps backwards and we can't have someone whose approach is going to be to play nice and get all nostalgic for the way things used to be. Those days are long gone and we need to move forward with our foot on the gas pedal, not meandering around telling stories about the good old days.

Even assuming we need a moderate (which I still don't think is the case), I'd rather it be a younger moderate like Beto or a female moderate like Amy. Going back to old white guys (and I am an old white guy) is a slap in the face to the groups that have kept this party alive during hard times (women, minorities, young people).
