AND actually rigorously vet and filter through our candidates to find maybe the right one?
I think if we stopped this "anybody but trump" game and focused on vetting these folks to see if they are strong enough to stand in front of Iran and NKs attacks, China's manipulation of our economy, and Russian tactics, then we might actually have a CHANCE. The real issues in this world are way beyond an Troll with a typewriter. His polocies can be reversed. His words only have meaning if you give them power by reacting. Bullies feed on reaction. Starve them.
It seems like we want to handle these candidates with white gloves in order to make sure nobody gets a bruise or two instead of seeing if they can take a punch and get back up. I say ask the hardest questions and make sure we find someone who will lead our country to its fullest potential.
