(17,139 posts)Hell, in the case of Obama and Clinton, at least, they put their lives and the lives of their FAMILIES on the line for years.
They deserve to have time to themselves to do whatever pursuits they want to enjoy with their years remaining. JFC it drives me crazy to hear criticism of people who gave it their all for years by anyone who hasnt been inside the ring of Washington politics.
To get to those positions of power to begin with, they had to spend some years wallowing in the mud pen of Washington politics, being attacked and unfairly accused, having their kids described in horrendous ways, receiving death threats, having thousands of hours of their lives wasted listening to the likes of Mitch McConnell droning on in the Senate chamber and sucking up to potential donors and having to deal with the medias clickbait-gotcha tactics and being outgunned by people collecting millions from rotten billionaires and trying to persuade the American public with an IQ about room temperature that YOU are the honest hardworking one and the OTHER guy is a lousy casino owner/hypocrite/con man.
No Fing thank you, i wouldnt wish that life on me or my children.
