    There’s a certain point where you shift from abject horror to “…Yeah that may as well just happen.”

    Really was hoping that this year was gonna be boring and unremarkable. Next year. Gonna get a winner eventually.

      We’ve had four years of boring and unremarkable, with many boring wins. And yet, that’s not what Americans seem to want.

      We’ve come to look at the Presidency like it’s a monarchy. The President has broad powers, but it’s only one of the three branches of government; but it’s harder to take your frustrations out in Congress.
