Interesting listening to Eric Schmitt. Been a senator for two years. Was the AG here who sued the school districts to dump masks etc. said the most shocking thing going to dc was the disconnect. The people in dc are in a cocoon. At the luncheons etc they are talking about shit that no one in Missouri talks about. Like separate worlds

I think we've arrived at this point.
Wonder if Indiana's just elected governor Mike Braun had a similar experience while being a U.S. Senator from 2018-2024.
I’d be willing to bet that he did. It’s far more common for ascending pols to go the other way.
Off the top of my head: Evan Bayh, Rick Scott, Pete Ricketts, John Hickenlooper, Joe Manchin, Lamar Alexander, Tim Kaine, on and on.
Like the list.
The on and on list in my view would include Tennessee's Bob Corker.
Craze, he started out in the construction business, so you know he has to be a practical common sense problem solver
