History has shown time and again that our country learns from its mistakes, both corrected by (and fought against by) the younger generation. The pendulum it doth swing...and its finally swinging to the right (left??) side. It has been a long 4 years.

Widening the viewfinder to include the years before Trump. This country has made progress--in improving and keeping our republic. There are always speedbumps. Obama was a freeway of progress. Trump was the speedbump equivalent.

The pendulum will again swing the other way. It's inevitable. It always does. It always will.

I'm intrigued by Hawley's rapid rise. Barely two years in the senate, has achieved nothing, and yet has managed to be included by the media (those wonderful enablers) in the GOP's rat pack of possible presidential contenders in 2024. How has he done this? Intelligence, ambition, no moral compass - these are obvious and common among the pack. Absence of competition among Republicans in the Senate is another facet. Is there something special about Missouri? It's had its fair share of national politicians (Truman, Danforth, Gephardt, Eagleton). And now...Hawley? Ugh.
