Yea.
At the end of the day there’s so little difference between Dems and pubs in the Merican 2 party system.
But, go figure how many Mericans think the problem is the other side
that’s not quite what i said
there are definitely differences, but elected officials of both parties will fuck over their constituents. there is a certain quality of character that seems to be required in order to run for (and win) elected office
it’s why i’m of the opinion that the best person/people for the job/s likely want nothing to do with it
So true. The ability to play the political game is basically at odds with the ability to do what's best for people.
Frankly that was my biggest reason for supporting Biden. I trusted him to put people, ones who had spent their careers taking less money than they could make in the private sector so that they could try to do good in the public sector, in cabinet/advisory positions, and that he had a weak enough ego that he would listen to them. President-by-committee essentially.
The opposite of TFG, who put cronies from the private sector and politicians in those positions, referring to public servants as the enemy (The scary Deep State!).
