(35,434 posts)The law of probability says you're going to have some losers in any job now and then. Well, now we have him and the circumstances are just right for not getting rid of him until the next election. So I guess I'd have to say that I just look at him as one of the necessary evils in life. After all, if we didn't have bad, we wouldn't have good. If we didn't have short, we wouldn't have tall, if we didn't have sad, we wouldn't have happy, etc.
If the U.S. electorate thought all presidents were pretty good, then we wouldn't have any reason to vote. I'm an activist from way back and now I see more and more people engaged and active in the political process.
This doesn't mean I refrain from saying "You effing jerk" to him when he's on TV. But overall I'm calm about it.
