204, that's about the most complete and succinct discussion of American politics for the last 30 years that I've seen. Well said.
I had been thinking about my own political essay, but now I just need to add another point to yours.
I feel that this election had more to do with Supreme Court justices than it did with the President. The second amendment to the Constitution is the one we talk about the most, but the other nine included in the Bill of Rights have been in similar jeopardy. Personally, I'd like to see more attention paid to the tenth amendment and to see more powers reserved and returned to the states and quit expecting the federal government to solve all of mankind's problems. Hopefully, this administration can move in that direction.
