This country does not need...

This country does not need Donald Trump taking a victory lap to the cheers of his supporters. It needs Donald Trump to assure this nation that he means it when he says he wants to bring us together, and then to prove his intentions by surrounding himself with people who will assure the liberties of all Americans.

This country does not need the likes of Mitt Romney licking Trump's boots to curry his favor and secure a place at his right hand. It needs Republicans who opposed him to show they did so on principle and to speak against his worst excesses and most egregious appointments. I'm talking to you, John Kasich. Bob Portman, too. Your silence is deafening.

This country does not need the Democrats to keep people like Nancy Pelosi in positions of party leadership. Like Hillary Clinton and Ted Strickland, a good person, but with a ton of baggage and no new ideas. Who will listen to her, especially in the shadow of the Democrats' multiple defeats which she helped bring down on them? We need a credible opposition. Now.
