Don’t forget Reagan. Jimmy Carter, one of our best presidents and true nice guy, the only nuclear scientist, someone who truly wanted life to be better for all Americans, spent the rest of his life helping people ……. Wasn’t “likable”, but Reagan was. Maybe y’all better think about that when you want your candidate to be likable, to schmooze, to tell you what you want to hear, or to be a “Great Communicator”
Paying the Iranians to keep the hostages until the election really should have been the tip-off that these were bad people. Instead, the Dems spent forty years trying to copy them. DNC consultants are garbage.
Carter was more than a good guy, he tried to do good things, for good motivations, he tried to conscientiously fulfill his role for his constituents. We would all be much better off if we had followed President Carter four more years. But he wasn’t photogenic, wasn’t a great talker
Reagan was nicknamed “the Great Communicator” because he was photogenic and great at talking, influencing, redirecting. He made us want to follow him. We all know how that turned out.
It’s a mismatch of expectations: why do elect based on ability to talk, but then complain about the initiatives and actions? Are we getting stuck with exactly what we deserve? We’re doing it again: Trump is a talker who riles people up, gets them agitated to follow him regardless of the disaster they’re following him into. In 2016, the biggest complaint of Clinton was she was boring. I didn’t like her either but she would have been effective, she would have started initiatives all us Lemmings would whole-heartedly agree with. She would have made the country, even the world, a better place. So why do we vote on personality and talk if we want specific action and direction

The consultants were right. It was the voters who were wrong. In a democracy, you get the leaders you deserve.
Wut
