The bald eagle, a symbol of the power and strength of the United States for more than 240 years, earned an overdue honor on Tuesday: It officially became the country’s national bird.

Over half of the country voted for him and he's going out sitting on his hands. He's letting the people that supported him down. It's bullshit. He's not running again. He should be making monumental moves. Instead he's trying to protect his centrist legacy. You serve the people or yourself.
