Well if your business (CNN) model is mostly based on how Trump is a bad guy and 6 Jan 21 was a violent attempt to overthrow the government, then this is the guy you hire.

January 6, 20232 yr I bet he was a real gem to work with in the Flying Squadron. On the other hand, my buddy has some peers who were in Tulsi’s Army unit and say she was always a pleasure to work with.

Ill play devils advocate here a bit but isn't that a good thing? Don't we want politicians who are authentic and do not put a façade on for camera.

Sorry, I was unclear. I didn't mean that he was quick to cry. I meant that he was a careerist twat who would do anything to stay in the spotlight. That's his public persona as far as I can tell, and that's what his squadron mate confirmed.

I think most of the "political commentators" do it as just a part time thing, but who knows. Given Kinzinger's visibility and "recency of experience," maybe he'll be able to make it as a full time gig. Kind of wonder what the half-life is of a CNN "Senior Political Commentator," though. Depending on how the political winds blow, CNN may quickly find Kinzinger's opinion to be irrelevant. Interesting to see how things shake out. Seems like loyal Congress-critters usually find themselves rewarded with cushy jobs at lobbying firms, think tanks, private equity, etc. So far, Kinzinger is missing out on all those options. CNN "Senior Political Commentator" seems like a lame consolation prize......
