This is very confusing.
I know New Canaan very well.
This guy holds office and rents? Granted his rent is guaranteed to be north of 3000 Peru month.. but still. This isn’t a great looking neighborhood. I haven’t been down that road in more than a decade.
I can’t imagine any connecticut resident having his attitude to the whole thing.
Joe Lieberman is under constant threat from other dems just because he breaks with the party line on Israel. Joe also lives a short trip from this neighborhood.
This article is fishy. At this guys age, “the Connecticut he knew” never existed.
Finally ct is FAMOUS for kids running for office and being turned away by the democratic party. They switch to Republican because the local Republican chairs will accept literally anyone who shows up.
You can only join the Democrat party as a candidate if you have the blessing of blumenidiot, d’anal malloy, Chris Dud or poor resident romulan/ kadafi impersonator rosa delauro.
This anectdote parallels my observation that RINOs are often hacks that can't climb the rungs in the party where their values lay (the Democrats) so they climb the rungs in the party that will let them (the Republicans).
