Reply to comment by HeyZuesHChrist in Democrats sweep special elections, affirming first Pa. House majority in 12 years by AgentDaxis

Jimmy Carter was an average Joe. Great guy, inept when it came to knowing how to navigate the Washington scum. I want more like Clinton and Obama in office.

It's such a shame that Hilary Clinton lost 2016. This country would have been so much better off economically and perhaps COvid would have not been as bad globally with a competent US lead.

And...? I thought were were talking about how the average Joe doesn't get modern day politics and how they work?

politics is complicated enough that you probably want someone in that seat who knows the landscape. associating politicians with corruption but not CEOs and businessmen is hilarious.

Yes. What's even more hilarious is thinking any one of those people was an "average Joe".
