Talking heads that discuss politics keep saying that Donald Trump should stay on message and just read what others have written for him, instead of just going off and saying what ever seems to comes into his head and then out his mouth.
One of the more tragic things about campaigns that start too soon, go on too long, and then never quite end is the difficulty in changing gears from primary contests to general elections.
The whole process is becoming something like playing old records. Stump speeches are comfortable and they mean something but they are really not helpful when it comes to developing policies and governing. I think folks should stop blaming candidates for being who they are. What were you expecting.
Speaking to your supporters and getting them fired up doesn't seem to be working this year and it is polluting the whole process. What difference is it going to make if whoever gets elected is so unpopular or generates opposition that nothing gets done.
We can't seem to appoint judges or important officials to fill positions, and the budget making process seems just as broken.
