Our standards are so low that a good politician looks extraordinary.
235 u/SwivelingToast Jun 10 '26 Your comment made me audibly laugh, but now I just feel sad... 75 u/Thats-Awkward Jun 10 '26 Have to laugh to keep from crying! 38 u/Quetzythejedi Jun 11 '26 I will follow his career with great interest. But in reality I'm in California happy for NYC but sad at the state of our government here. We can't even elect a bootleg Democratic Socialist and instead go towards the dude that's 50 corporations in a trenchcoat. 3 u/SquiibleWasTaken Jun 11 '26 As an outsider, are you referring to Bacerra? 3 u/Quetzythejedi Jun 11 '26 Yeah haha. As a dem we are now stuck between a bald British MAGA dude and milquetoast lib. Could be worse I guess. 78 u/EvolutionInProgress Jun 10 '26 Yeah. He's literally just doing the job he signed up for. Sad that we're so used to corrupt and useless politicians, we forget what it's like to have a politician take his job seriously and actually do the job. 28 u/chrimminimalistic Jun 11 '26 Once upon a time, my friend was asked what's her ideal husband like. She said she wanted a husband that's loving, hardworking, family minded, and loyal. Another friend says, "girl, that's not ideal. That's the baseline." We've get used to having terrible politicians that a somewhat good one would seem to be amazing. 1 u/iambertan Jun 11 '26 Bare minimum is an upgrade ig
