This should be another Democrat slogan. I am sick of people voting for a leader who has no empathy or interest in who they serve. They are only there to serve themselves.

They cant believe that somebody could be in office that long strictly for public service and not grifting

(49,751 posts)They look at squeaky clean Joe Biden and wonder "what's the catch?" Republican politicians especially tend to judge other politicians by what they would do, so they will assume that Democratic politicians are lying, cheating, and stealing while having extra-marital or deviant sexual relations. And of course, there must be voter or election fraud, because that is what THEY would do to win an election.
So essentially the accusations they make are really more a reflection on them. They are telling us who they are. That's really sad.
