thats just one man’s opinion, and if you don’t like the man, who cares what he thinks...Republican presidents made him and he had become quite a liberal, who wouldn’t have given him the time of day....
I find it interesting that politicians who end up in DC “evolve” in only one direction: towards liberalism/progressiveism. Not all change, but those who do always move left. Is it the money, do they get assimilated, or were they always leftists? I don’t know, but it’s a curious thing. Powell is a case in point.
