People are judging him as you would a public servant, he's not. He's a private citizen, running a business, and making great hits on Trump
Enjoy.

(5,101 posts)I understand your point.
Maybe it's not as selfless as it sounds, or maybe it is.
I'm old enough not to believe in fairy tales, but I'm playing the benefit of the doubt card.
To speak the truth, I think he's 99% honest. For the remaining %..., well we are human...
However, he already has significant media coverage and pugnacity. This is exactly what separated families need. So I just take without question.

(19,962 posts)a private citizen getting at the right, and he's got fantastic results so far. As long as he isn't breaking the law, more power to him. It's just unfortunate that people on our side rush to take pot shots at him. If he was going for public office then a different standard should be applied, but until then, more power to him !

All volunteers are welcome in tough times.
