The Biden warmongering/ corporatists swamp on steroids.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Why not? I’ve worked for Fortune 100 companies before. Am I disqualified from public service? Why do we assume anyone from the private sector is bereft of morals and ethics?
Replying to @marwilliamson
Perhaps he has the best credentials in antitrust matters. (Perhaps we assume that everything has been poisoned by cronyism—and we’d be partially correct).

You seem surprised. Your Democrat ‘President’ was the one you Championed. Buyer’s remorse?
Replying to @marwilliamson
A man with no expertise or experience in politics - a man who was an outsider - just spent four years in the Oval Office. It’s obvious how that worked out.

Replying to @marwilliamson

Replying to @marwilliamson
Sometimes people surprise you, especially if they've been in the throws of it themselves. E.g. Gensler: wsj.com/articles/bidens-cand… People made assumptions about him as well. Don't bring a brother's past into the present - I read that in a really good book :)
Replying to @marwilliamson
Worst possible choice. Biden must name an antitrust warrior to his antitrust division because our economy will never be inclusive if we don't break up the monopolies, in every industry.
