Agreed. Hope more democrats follow Biden and Nadler’s lead, and stick around to support rather than “hobble” the new energetic leaders. BTW, love application of historic insights. In another life I was a social scientist, but more and more I’m drawing on history to make sense of the mess we see. Thx

Testimony to Dump’s profound stupidity. The US spent decades trying to balance the tripartite super powers so that two enemies would combine forces. In just 8 short months, Dump and his incompetents have given China more power and Putin outsized influence over the world. Orange idiot!

Sounds like it’s easier to simply insult people who don’t hold your perspective than actually argue a point; very similar to the fragile GOP —which proves my point about the current party sitting on Reagan’s lap instead of moving toward FDR. But as one fine Dem said “if you can’t stand the heat…”

Yes. But let’s not pretend that the GOP antecedents didn’t create the Orange Beast, or that people like Bolton and McConnell didn’t chicken out when they had a chance to impeach the would-be autocrat. While Dump’s autocratic actions are abhorrent, Bolton is the partial author of his own demise.
