The Man of the People

Romney confidants say they still believe Trump and Vice President-electMike Pence were genuinely vetting Romney for the job, with phone calls, a meeting at Trump’s golf course in Bedminster, N.J., and a sumptuous two-hour dinner at Jean Georges in Manhattan, complete with frog legs and diver scallops.

Yes, His Majesty will totally be helping regular folks in between sumptuous frog leg dinners at Jean Georges. The plight of the Regular Joe is very close to his diver-scallop-nourished heart. 

Whew, what a relief we didn’t elect one of those nasty coastal elites who keep dropping thousands at chichi French restaurants in Manhattan.

    What does being Secretary of State — which is the position that Romney was being considered for — have to do with the “plight of the Regular Joe”?

    Take a guess at what our current Secretary of State’s net worth is. How often do you think Obama and Kerry discuss policy over a meal at Applebee’s? 🙂

    I don’t believe ANY politician can ever be “of the people”.
    Just about all of them are elitists or at least upper-middle-class-bred “trophy” bastards.
    They’re products of a completely different “alternative microcosmic bubble” than are your regular “average Joe/Jane”.
    One’s choices, when voting, is always between one aristocrat or the other aristocrat.
    “Normal” people never run for office, with the exception of local small-town elections.
