I will say things like “bring manufacturing back to our country” but I’ve never thought I had to take our country back from anybody.

I personally am stunned and disheartened at the apparently short half-life of institutional memory, while rover and limpy are no doubt thrilled witless, literally. All things being equal, we MUST stay stubborn and be prepared to work, if we want democracy to work. D’Oh! & Dammit! No rest for the weary, wary or anything in between.
