This makes me think back to a lunch I had a few months ago with what I’d call a normal dem - he worked as a lawyer at small biz administration commenting on regulatory issues. So a govie but a pro business one. He applied for a position on a dem committee for a policy position. But they wanted him to be legal - that is, someone that would point out whether positions had a legal backing, because literally every dem staffer wanted to do policy and none wanted to be legal - pushing back on any hair brained scheme. They’ve been completely captivated by morons who don’t care about the legality of an issue, just having the correct, furthest left view.
Oh and when the Rs got majority and Dems lose staff he was fired lol
And he’s Jewish! He needs to switch sides
