I actually think this, too (not that President Pence is any consolation). Trump has never really worked a day in his life, and now he’s stepping into the most labor-intensive job on the planet. It takes a toll on someone who is both intelligent and physically fit. He has admitted that he doesn’t read. The president…

Mike Pence is the worst, the only way he is better than Trump is that he maybe wouldn’t start a nuclear war because someone insulted his hair. But on reproductive rights Pence is far scarier than Trump.

“Although I’m sure his replacement would be almost as bad so it’s cold comfort at best.”

They don’t mistake him for her boyfriend because she has his face. She’s a lady Ryan Phillippe.

The assholes that loudly mocked the idea of caring about anything suddenly care about political outcomes? What happened to both candidates being equally bad and nothing ever matters, guys? Congratulations, you assholes got your dearest wish, South Park. Hopefully Trump never sees a bad word from you about him that…

I never got the whole heaven backwards thing...why would you want to name your child after backwards heaven? Is that like saying you want them to go to hell? Or is there an “opposite heaven” where everyone who is left handed becomes right handed and everyone who is right handed because left handed? So. Many. Questions.

Every state that has term limits has resulted in outside interest having a greater influence in policy. And Why wouldn’t it? If your job isn’t politics, then you’re going to see lawmaking as a stepping stone for something with more money. And that more money is probably going to come from the lobbyists whose wheel you…

It’s possible that term limits, by removing the option to be a career legislator, would only worsen the current problem of time in Congress just being a stepping-stone to lucrative lobbying jobs. I’d be worried that representatives would just spend even more of their time setting themselves up for their next job.

They’re two different job functions. One’s legislating and the other is the executive branch, the representative leader, etc. Working within Congress does require some knowledge of how to work within the political sphere. We see what happens when people don’t understand how it works - look at the gridlock with the Tea…

The thing about term limits is that if you think somwbody’s been in office for too long, you could always, I dunno, vote them out.

Tradition played a large role in adopting the Amendment that made the term limit official.

Term limits for POTUS are a safeguard against dictatorship. And it’s debatable whether it is actually necessary (though Latin American strongmen like to scrap them).

I said below that this is good news because it will never get 2/3 of each house and will piss off all the Republicans, but it occurs to me now that if it does somehow pass - term limits for Congress are a popular proposal - it’s a little scary. Reducing the legislature’s power relative to the executive is kind of a…

I work with people who talk about term limits like they’d be a good thing. And my response is always “if no one doing the job has been there for more than 4 years, no one is going to know what they’re doing. Instead of 30 year congressmen, you’ll have a majority leader’s chief of staff or a party boss who hangs…

Well, hey. Trump may have a blank check to destroy this county for everyone who isn’t wealthy, white and male, but we can all take comfort in the fact that Mitch McConnell will push back against congressional term limits. He’s truly the hero we deserve.

Shock is a luxury. No time for luxury anymore. Time to organize, protest, volunteer.

I keep thinking I’m going to wake up.

I can’t believe this is happening. I can’t believe this is happening. I can’t believe this is happening. That loop has been playing in my head all day.
