it has to stop now.

Not happening. I didn't make it to base camp just to take a selfie and go home.

I think fundamentally, you're lawful good while I'm chaotic good.

Seems like a fair estimation. I am a literal bleeding heart choirboy.

I think she would have done a reasonably good job... from a globalist, center-right point of view.

I completely agree with this estimation, which is why I couldn't vote for her. I don't want a globalist center-right perspective pushed or endorsed. When you vote in the US it's not like the UN where I get to say 'Yes, with rights' and explain how my support of a candidate or idea is tentative and subject to immediate revocation if certain terms and conditions are not met. A vote for Hillary Clinton is a vote in positive, unmitigated support of the Democratic Party and all it stands for. I do not give the blue team my positive, unmitigated support.

I remain unconvinced that Bernie Sanders would have been as good an administrator.

He wouldn't have been as good an administrator and his term would have been full of stumbling blocks and unfulfilled idealism. He likely would not have won a second term, if he lived long enough to run. Still better than either of the alternatives. Evidently a lot of folks felt the same way, so here we are in the darker, stupider timeline.

You've earned a break.

I don't think so. The world doesn't take breaks and I have too much enforced downtime as it is. One day maybe my stack of books will be high enough to see over the fence into the promised land.
