It's not easy at all but for me Ive been trying to go back to when I was essentially apolitical.

The worst thing about yesterday is it set the precedent, hell in some circles we were told Trump's impeachment was semi-payback for Clinton's...you can extrapolate where I am going...
All I know is in the 70s both sides didn't want to prosecute Nixon and they worked towards letting the country heal. The two parties aren't even coming close to understanding you CAN NOT leave a country in constant strife and division.
We need a reset, a restart, a reimaging of our election cycle where we get maximum voter participation because we DON"T have complete apathy about the extremely flawed candidates the two parties offer.
But I came to the conclusion (I'll save you the verbosity) that the legal system has been changed by it's constituents. Of course, this cannot last for these people are all mortal. Our answer should bear out in oversight which we cannot allow the establishment to "man with political appointees" as we have done for decades. I'm not sure how that could work unless our representatives stop obeying "the unaccountable party" and start obeying the actual citizens at large. The conduct of the media has made that more difficult... with the whole "true journalism is old-fashioned" thing.
The fix starts by excluding their performance-driven narrative from the actual decision-making. I don't think the thespian core in politics and the producers in media want that... ever.
