Term limits are great for excising the current cancer. The problem is that the incoming "new blood" are already looking at how to get over in a system that's yet fully depleted and the people are as gullible as last year. Just paint a new target and direction, they'll follow.

We will soon see second historic event in a matter of few weeks: first woman president to be impeached (first first pair to be impeached too). You've given up. And people who have hope are branded as deplorables, if you're a part of broken system and accept it without fight... damn lets not go there, they're both corrupt, let the best win
