Politicians pretty much always have some staff to respond to comments and questions. At least they used to - I have no idea whether MAGA politicians would bother. I know my own MAGA congressman’s office is full of totally incompetent morons.
I remember a time when we had competent people in the government.
I might not have liked them or agreed with them, but they presented an air of gravitas and importance. They might not have had the good of all America in their hearts, but they did not publicly wish ill to any group or individual.
Seems generations ago.
Your post reminds me that it was just a decade ago.
