re: #564 HappyWarrior

I’d rather defend but I do have a little bit of “You assholes wanted this, okay here it is, have a nice fucking life, don’t blame us when things go wrong.” But of course, it won’t work that way. Trump and the GOP will blame Obama and the Democrats for whatever troubles he has.

Well, I can see the writing on the wall for my village board seat (only eight votes for Hillary Clinton in my precinct, which is basically my village). Ah well, a term and a half-term for a job that doesn’t pay anything was a pretty good run for a Democrat here. I don’t see me surviving an election challenge in 2018.

I did get a few progressive things accomplished with my GOP colleagues on the village board though (I’m particularly proud of the significant rise in village employee pay, and 25% increase in funding to the public library - I wonder how long those will last).
