<this Administration assumes they can be damned and be left on the wharf, we're setting sail. Which isn't altogether bad>

Lets review this comment in about 20 years, if either of us is still alive, and on SI. I'm guessing we'll find there are some flaws.

this Administration assumes they can be damned and be left on the wharf, we're setting sail. Which isn't altogether bad.

The rest of the world had got used to being able to say, "Hey, you can't sail without me!" However, when we go ahead and sail, we find them right behind us in boats, rowing frantically.
