This whole hardworking, everyday man, Texas stereotype thing is such a joke. There’s nothing tough or hardworking about these dorks, yet small town people that do have to work hard every single day suck this nonsense up.
Dan Patrick wasn’t even born Dan Patrick, his real name is Dannie Goeb... and he was born in Maryland!!! Yet he has this whole southern boy rancher bit he fronts with.
Don’t get me started on Ted Cruz... nobody on this planet would consider Ted Cruz tough.

The very moment you become a politician. Hell, your first priority is win, so you can atleast entertain the idea of "caring".

I did enjoy earlier this week when Seth Meyers showed a photo of Paul Rudd and said that he’s 2 years older than Ted. I know it’s an extreme example but Cruz is not someone I would want to emulate.

Politicians by default regardless of political views look down on people. Even if it’s “I want to help them” you got to believe you’re special and can help people. Then you can go deeper and have to ask “What if people don’t want help?” A politicians answer is by default “Well I know what people need better than them” and that right there is the false sense of superiority that they all have. Almost all politicians are ego tripping and if they don’t I don’t expect them to last long because most people have been conditioned to see ego tripping politicians as leaders.
Then don’t even get me started on the staff around them who are sycophants and the adulation and cheers they get from crowds at public events.

The most damaging perception about politics that has been sold to the American people (and really, people the world over) is that politics should be simple. That's why the moment you, as an individual informed about all the possible ramifications of policies, start delving into those complex topics, low-info people try to shoot down those issues as "MSM talking points" and pivot back to the "common sense" BS.This whole hardworking, everyday man, Texas stereotype thing is such a joke. There’s nothing tough or hardworking about these dorks, yet small town people that do have to work hard every single day suck this nonsense up.

These politicians understand that people want simple solutions to complex problems, and they'll vote for the person who will suggest such solutions.
The thing is, they are never supposed to buy the BS they are selling, but when entire generations grow up with the belief that politics is simple and no one ever challenges that idea, they end up voting for simpletons like those GA and CO Qongresswomen.

In Washington, Policy Revolves Around Joe Manchin. He Likes It That Way. (Published 2021)
Mr. Manchin’s belief in the need to keep the filibuster has set the stage for a collision between Democrats eager to use its majorities to pass sweeping legislation and a political throwback determined to restore bipartisanship.
Manchin's *** still outchea power tripping

You mean these "ex-pats" didn't even bother to get a citizenship? I hate the rebranding and romanticizing of white immigration so much.
