Good things come to those who wait.
There are 18 days to President-elect Donald Trump's Inauguration Day. In the wake of the New Year's Day terror activity, I hope the country makes it there in one piece. Looking back at the wreckage of the current administration, I have no confidence that Joe Biden won't do more serious damage to the country before he shuffles off stage.
Congress needs to get Trump's national security choices confirmed ASAP. With only a one-term window, there is no luxury of time. Any one of Trump's Cabinet selections could not possibly do worse than the clown show we have suffered through for the past four years. Approve them and let the new president get down to business, fast.
The clock is ticking loudly, and nervous Americans (such as I am) are counting the days.
