Republicans are good at winning elections. Democrats are good at governing. For America to continue to be great, both parties need to improve the political skill they are weak at.

As protests grew on university campuses and in cities and towns across Turkey, she could no longer resist joining.
“I saw the spark in people’s eyes and the excitement on their faces, and I decided I had to come down here,” she said with a grin, standing among tens of thousands that defied a ban on assembly to fill the streets around city hall on Friday night.

The thing to understand about Trump is like in his first term, he doesn’t want to govern. He doesn’t want to learn. He wants to campaign and look good.
Republicans know this. So there are battles going on right now to take control of the actual process of governing.
