Since the Democrats nominated Hillary Clinton and the Republicans nominated Donald Trump, I said that as far as I am concerned the 2016 election was a wash. It didn't matter to me who won; we were in for a terrible four years, because, as you mentioned, the choice was between the worst two candidates that we could have nominated.<br /><br />Frankly, I think this is a direct result of eight years ago, when the country elected a backbencher senator with very little experience. One could argue that the current mood of incivility may have started with Clinton's election in 1992, but I think that the mood of the country since 2008 is unprecedented. This poor-loser syndrome must be stopped! Unfortunately, we have to put up with this until 2020, so we have to make the best of it. I am hoping that despite the rough beginning, Trump will be successful, and he will need the help of the administration and Congress to pass meaningful legislation to move forward with his plans.sheldanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03696749138880768464noreply@blogger.com
