Don’t you find it curious that the Bush daughter, Jenna, is now the co-host of NBC’s Today Show? She is no particular beauty, doesn’t seem overly bright or personable and there are a million other young ladies far more talented who couldn’t even be interviewed for the role. But all of a sudden, she is a “star” making $ 4 million a year.

Why, how convenient.

It is just one more example of the connected DC club / administrative state / deep state that wants to keep the club going and the patronage flowing. People like Pres. Trump are disruptors to that club.

With the example Kaysick provides people have a window into the kind of creature most professional politicians really are.

Most are opportunist who position themselves as conservative/progressive/liberal based on the district they are planning to run in. Everything they do/say after that decision is made is phony. People like this think only of money, money, money...a bit greedy perhaps(?).

Great example is “Morning Joe” Joe Scarborough, who went from being a strong conservative representing a very conservative Florida panhandle district, to the creature we now see at PMSNBC. Like any good lawyer who can take any side of an issue, and be a persuasive advocate, professional politicians have the same skill set.

The major, perhaps sole reason the majority of professional politicians have for running is money. If you could open their skulls and peer inside you would likely find a greed based calculating mind studying/scheming 24/7 about how to best score a killing on whatever deal(s) they are working on.

Sadly (pathetic) I am starting to believe most of them could advocate for Hitler for enough money.

No surprise we find that Trump is anathema to them, even to Republicans. However, with Republicans they are (mostly) going to hide what they truly feel.

This sap had scheduled a victory press conference for the day after the election where he thought he'd declare himself the new leader for the party. To his dismay he had to scramble to cancel it when Trump won.

It shows he lacks judgement and is hungry for power. These are two qualities that make him a perfect Democrat. So Kasich, stop linking yourself to the GOP. Nobody is buying what you're selling.

Ah yes, I remember how very close you were to Gary Condit right before that Levy girl went missing. Notice you didn’t run for re election after it happen.
Must have been that Boys Club I heard of.

Well, I would abandon the GOP, too, if I could find a party that more closely matched my values AND had a good shot at winning elections. The Democratic Party is not it.

John, you have no character, therefore, you have no conscience.

Which way do you go when you lack integrity and principles?
