Mandate Agonistes.
LBJ, Nixon and Reagan all had landslides and all three administrations ended on sour notes.

Iran/Contra scandal and senility... and he was younger than Trump will be.
Reagan's final years were Bidenesque and Bush only won because the Dukakis campaign was more pathetic than Kamala's.

He doesn’t have a mandate even close to what they had. He did win decisively by the standards of
today though. His handlers will have their hands full with the shit show to come.
Good job America.
We fully deserve all that is coming.
His devotees believe he has a mandate and given who he is winning a majority seems like one.
The point is that he is likely to overreach and end up disgraced.
After the Dems win the midterms he's in for a couple years of misery.

BTW I met the real FrankL. I was friends with his oldest son at ND and went to his wedding in Portland, Oregon. THAT was a drama on so many levels
Wow, didn’t know that. Fred posts here occasionally. My Dad said his teams were juggernauts and he
was a such a perfectionist. Great coach that was so good that the Uni didn’t like being known as a football factory.
Fred was the younger brother. I met him but we never connected

Big Frank’s grandson also played for the Irish. Remember him well. Good lineman. Don’t know which
son is his Dad.
Dunno, there's a LOT to fix. But I do know that the Trump Tax Cut gamble won, and it will now be
made permanent.
I also know that there will be at least 2 and maybe 3 more SCOTUS appointments made by Trump who favors strict constitutionalists.
