Which is part of the problem. This whole expectation that our leaders should hide their true feelings and motivations behind a veil of niceties only serves their goals of hiding such things from the people trying to figure out who to vote for. We should know who our politicians are as actual people, since it's the person they are in private that will motivate their actions within the government, not the nice face they put on for the public.

As I understand it, that is a large part of Trump's success with certain groups.

Admittedly, that turns off people who don't agree with what you're saying...

Unfortunately the most recent guy to do this won the presidency. But the dems can’t seem to realize that they can do that too, only their not being huge pieces of shit both in private and in public seems to be a detractor in todays day and age.
