President should retire after his first term

I’ve got a feeling that President Donald Trump should forgo a second term, much as in 1974 I had a feeling that Muhammad Ali should retire after knocking out George Foreman.

Why continue to trade political haymakers with the opposition and risk big damage in the process? Mr. Trump does seem to like a fight, as did Ali, but at his age, it might be more fun on the sidelines endlessly rocking the establishment’s boat with tweets — all while crowing that he was “the greatest.”
