He was dismissive of her anguish. Told her to get a job and walked away.
Courageous woman! Fantastic!

Definitely NOT a governor for the people. The wealthy elite are so disconnected from how the 80-90 % live.

I have yet to see a republican that is for 'The People'.

New rule:
to be a politician governing and representing the people, you must participate in a week-long annual reality/experiential workshop of who Americans are, how they live and various social economic life experiences.
