I firmly believe there is no governmental job that can better be handled by a Democrat rather than a Republican. However, today and for the past two years, a Republican has been in the White House, and he has damaged the United States' reputation in the world. His pronouncements have shown a lack of understanding of his constitutional powers and limitations, except the ability to issue executive orders, which are subject to judicial review, and pardons, which are not.
Historically, a term-limited president takes actions that would not be considered appropriate if he were seeking re-election. If President Donald Trump runs and is re-elected in 2020, I caution all to see what actions would be taken when he is not able to retain the office. Specifically, to whom would pardons be granted or clemency specified?
His running for re-election concerns me; his being re-elected frightens me.
