During this election cycle, I've observed a lot of politicians and news outlets/people loose their composure and run off at the mouth about a candidate they didn't like. While I have come to expect this from musicians and the Hollywood set of usual suspects, the extreme actions and comments from supposedly seasoned political people was surprising. Mayor Bowser was one of these politicians. Endorsing a candidate is one thing. But cheap shots at a national candidate with early on broad support is a foolish waste of political capital. Politicians use this as a means to get things done. I don't know why so many people put so much on the line for Hillary Clinton, but they are paying for choosing incorrectly. Mayor Bowser is getting a lesson on the effects of letting your emotions interfere with your job. She works for the people of DC, in the middle of a city that depends quite a bit on the federal government. Now she has to hope that Trump is more professional than she was. Time will tell. At best, this must be a humbling experience. I guess we'll see on both accounts.
