People are disappointed that flawed people are in fact flawed.

I keep getting the sense that folks are hankering for an idol. And they’ll call you out in a moment if you pick the wrong idol, calling it idolatry. About those who agree with their pick, they have less to say.

Some political situations seem more promising than others, in spite of the flaws. One could do worse than to become populist in a situation where government has been ignoring the people. However this can’t be treated as a set-and-forget affair. We can’t chuck some kind of savior over the transom to Washington and then just wish and hope for the best. Dialogues will have to go on for the entirety of such a presidency.

you are 100 percent right.

sometimes I feel we are looking for a savior to change the entire country.

No one man can do that.

The one that could already came a few thousand years ago.

I’m not seeing much dialogue these days and don’t expect to see much in the future.
