    Along with a war chest that far exceeded Scott’s and a crowded field of newcomers, Clark’s campaign benefited from Scott’s death on 22 April at the age of 80.

    We really need to normalize politicians retiring. They shouldn’t all stay in power until they literally die of old age.

      The collective West has a problem with giving psychopaths power - they will never let it go willingly.

      Politics needs to be a civic duty of the people, not a career for middle- and upper-class parasites who have no other value to society and community other than that which they assure us they have whilst voting for corrupt policies that enrich their families for literal decades.
