  1. Hard lesson for the dems to learn: the game is politics--play or go home. What the goon squad is playing is not american politics...it's more akin to revolution politics. The American political game is played...differently. Nobody really wants to play the revolution politics game...it doesn't have rules that matter...and is quite unseemly in its conduct.

  2. We'll see if Trump is smart enough to back off periodically, to avoid transparency. These four a goon squad. In hockey, a "goon" is a burly player whose main purpose is to discourage the other team's players from being rough by punishing them even more roughly when they are thought to have used excessive force. Curiously, it's thought to have a "civilizing" effect on the game; you know, magically making everybody play nice, by just being there, looking...burly. It seems to me likely that the squad won't remain intact post-2020. They got in because no one was watching. Now everybody's watching; and the voters in those districts are looking to reclaim their sovereignty, and their dignity!
