For better or worse, that's how all politicians operate... it has more to do w/ the profession than the person. None of them are angels. Kamala also changed her stripes.
What I find insidious about the Dems is that they tell you everything will be OK before they stab you in the back. At least the Republicans say... be careful you might get stabbed in the back before they go ahead and do it.
The honesty somehow takes the sting out IMHO. Lol
I don't think that's a fair characterization of either party. Both parties have their constituents they will support and another group they don't, You hear what you hear based on what group you are in.
