Time To Reflect.

       I agree with some of the folks saying its time to stop butting heads with Trump. It seems to be pretty much over for him anyway. Why, even he has started to speak of issues and talking about what his first one hundred days might have been like had he won. Okay, so he worded it slightly differently, the point is its time to dream, for both Donald and Hillary.
       For Donald Trump the dream is of his first hundred days in the White House. He mentioned something about suing all the women who have come forward to accuse him of inappropriate touching conduct. Gosh, all these months of struggling to get elected and if he does, all he wants to do is pick on some ladies he didn't get to score with. What a loss.
       Hillary has a somewhat different dream. She's hoping that all this email talk will go away. That's about as likely as seeing The Donald sitting in the oval office. What she needs to set her eyes on is all the problems facing an American President, most of which will be unsolvable. And those that can be solved will take the total attention and energy of a caring president.
       The other problem the new President faces is a Congress with no interest in agreeing with anything either new President would like to work on solving. They're having enough trouble solving the seating arrangement in both houses of Congress. But when the dust settles over Washington, it's unlikely either party will have a clear and formidable majority, even within that majority's own caucus.
       The problem for the American people in the coming years will grow worse and worse. We'll grow closer and closer to war. And such a war will be fought with conventional arms and cyber attacks, and lord hope it not be nuclear. Now, we can blame past presidents and the legislatures they faced, Barak, George W, Bill, George H. W, Ronald, and beyond. But the blame game won't absolve us of the fact that we chose them all, Presidents, Representatives, and Senators.
