A Rather Horrifying Thought

It hit me tonight that today is the first day of the second half of President Trump's current term in office.  That's worth noting as a milestone.  More important in my view is that even though Trump's term is just half over, there are already six declared Democrat candidates for president for 2020.  Sure, there are about another 30 who have yet to jump into the race, but that will happen in the next month or two.  After that we will have the start of the endless campaign.

Does it really make sense for all these people to have an endless campaign for president?  I don't think so.  Most people aren't paying any attention to the race at all.  Only the political junkies (who make up a small part of the population) are paying attention now.  Remember, it is about a year until the first caucus takes place in Iowa.  What are all these candidates going to be doing during that year?  The endless campaign will get boring very quickly.
