        Sure but how many consulting firms for political campaigns are there?

        I’m like if I pay my plumber and then it turns out he was a January 6ther. Does that really say anything about me?

          You asked what was different, I answered your question.

          There are enough that she could find one that wasn’t run by an insurrectionist if she cared. No I’ve is going to look into who fixed your sink because no one cares. Half of politics is optics and making sure the people working for you aren’t going to make you look bad.
