In reply to the discussion: Thank God Hillary Lost [View all]calimary
(81,589 posts)Sometimes I get one of those random wincing moments - where I'm feeling quite heartsick.
What a waste.
The talent we can't have in that Oval Office.
Those brains.
That heart.
That compassion.
That resourcefulness and creative thinking and problem-solving.
I want a wonk in that office - who gets all the complexities, who bothers to read the briefing papers, who has high reading comprehension, who's put an almost Herculean effort into the hard work of public service over the span of decades.
She might actually have solved some of the problems that still nag us.
That's all lost to us now - at a moment when we sure need those attributes at work for this country. Instead, we have a vainglorious half-baked orange turd, who's only in it for the money, power, and dominance.
