” in 2 more years he’ll be retired.”
While former Republican presidents fade from public life former Democratic presidents stay in the news with moralistic pronouncements on every current issue. If you thought you were tired of hearing Obama’s clichés wait until he feels unrestrained by the office. You could always just leave the teacher’s lounge but now it will follow you everywhere there is a droning TV.
Every ex-president I’ve experienced has pretty well much disappeared into rhetorical oblivion, or have just kept their noses out of other presidents business. There’s just so much influence lost when they take that last helicopter ride. In time, the democrats will look back and think WTF were we thinking?
