        There's a marked difference between an avant-garde approach to campaigning & breaking rules intended to protect public at large.

        Being outsiders is not the issue. Being compulsively dishonest, narcissistic graspers is the issue.

        Who needs experts? Turns out running the free world no job for laymen (though I thought we spent the last 8 years learning that lesson).

        It's not an either/or question. They relished breaking the rules/norms in campaign AND they were (still are) cynical, reckless, & dangerous.

        Yes, yes, and no. You don’t get to the last one if you still have a moral/ethical compass.

        Does that automatically exclude outsider groups from consideration? Maybe it was and should have been the character of that group litigated

        They wanted to get rid of the Office of Government Ethics so it would seem that ethics or morals are irrelevant to them

        The party has to either destroy itself or destroy the government as we know it.

        Sorry Matt. Stop making excuses. They aren't "breaking rules" or shifting the paradigm. Junior and his cohorts broke the law.
