The Democratic candidate he donated to was a longtime friend of his from high school. It’s kind of sad these days that you have to have a whole list of political credentials just to run for office. The founding fathers intended representatives to be ordinary citizens who would at the most serve for one or two terms before returning to the private sector. Now, it seems you have to had lived off the taxpayer for at least a dozen years before you can run for office.
With only two donations in his history, no matter the party, I got the idea that he wasn't very politically active which I would find relevant. If you know more about him, please share. I'm sure others would be interested.

If you look at the threads from two years ago, it was not the lack of political credentials that was causing suspicion. Generally, there was a blank sheet to work with as far as understanding his professional background, qualifications, and position on issues.

I certainly don't share that opinion.
