    I want a president who terrifies people.

    (Actually, I don't. I'm just restructuring the sentence to make it less terrifying.)

    This reminds me of Eva Peron.

    "Love requires sacrifice. General Peron has sacrificed everything for the happiness of his people. All of us should be, as I am, willing to give our life for General Peron"

    To which the crowd gathered at Plaza de Mayo would reply by chanting over and over:

    "La vida por Peron, la vida por Peron". (Our life for Peron)

    As I've often said while Trump was president, I've seen this movie before, and it doesn't end well.

    Coincidentally, Trump's favorite musical is Evita.

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    I'll just state again, I sincerely feel bad for normal conservatives, for people who value entrepreneurship and personal responsibility and limited government. If the Democrats went full authoritarian commie and I had to choose between that and Dole-Bush-Romney type Republicans, I'd like to think I'd hold my nose and vote Republican, but I'm happy I don't have to make that choice.

    This has been discussed on a kind of existential level by said conservatives - as in market liberal, rule of law conservatives... it seems they make up only about 5% of the voter block formerly said to be conservative.

    One of the problems is conservatism really needs to reinvent itself at grass roots for modern challenges - e.g, climate change. Conservatism isn't supposed to stand for low tax. It is supposed to stand for pragmatic responses to challenges and climate change actual demands significant government action.

    Speaker Pelosi is about to pass the baton! Massive respect to this Lady. The best and most effective speaker in my lifetime and perhaps in history.

    Sam Rayburn. Tip O'Neil was pretty good too.

    I'm not familiar enough with the real old timers but somebody did some good work post-civil war, and in TRs time, I'd guess.

    Still, that's praising her with faint damns...

    The new generation is taking over! All the best to them!

    Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-MD) will also step down from Democratic leadership but remain in Congress, Punchbowl News reports.

    Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC) will run for Assistant Democratic Leader in the next Congress.

    That sets up the new House Democratic leadership as Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), Rep. Katherine Clark (D-MA) and Rep. Pete Aguilar (D-CA).

    There's Nazis on both sides - grammar Nazis on one side, and, um, Nazi Nazis on the other side.

    But for the last 60 or so years, it's stood for segregation, limited/small government to crush the Civil Rights struggle, dishonesty in public education, sexism, ageism, homophobia, racism, boiled okra... the pragmatism of stunting a nation's moral growth...

    At what time in history was conservatism ever what its sycophants claimed it was?

    I feel that is why it collapsed. Once the centre left adopted free market capitalism / 3rd way, conservatism had no differentiation.... just culture war stuff or discredited ideas on taxes and deficits that no one believes in
