I'm really tired of all the stupidity in Foggy Bottom right now. Sometimes I think the show "Designated Survivor" could be a vast improvement...
Hah yeah the fact that we've managed to turn it into a full career is a huge problem. My comment was more that there are definitely drawbacks to adding term limits which need to be considered. (I have a copy of the Federalist Papers as well, good reading).
