Twenty years from now or so, a high school history teacher might pose the following problem to his class: Imagine a sitting president running for reelection. This president has had a very successful term that everyone recognizes: high employment, low unemployment, thriving savings, wages, and homeownership. The country was not at war, and the president was trying to be on the right side of helping other countries protect their borders while struggling to secure U.S. borders.
His opponent was also a former president who had been impeached twice but never convicted by the Senate. He was also facing civil lawsuits for fraud and assault against women he met and was attracted to. He had also just been convicted of 34 felony counts for attempting to mislead voters by concealing a sexual relationship with a porn star shortly after his wife gave birth to their youngest child. He must pay $500 million in civil damages. He was awaiting sentencing on the felony charges.
Now, the question is: which of the parties of these two candidates is angry and asking its candidate to withdraw from the election?
— Larry Baumbach, Chico
