Does the guy still admire DOGE, and still insist on speaking only in English to born and raised Koreans who happen to be white?

Very weird, creepy guy. Doesn't pay his lawyers either.

Who you work with certainly matters, but it does show that it's incredibly easy to get a foot in the door with a lot of political things.

People complain so much about politics as being this completely foreign and detached thing. But it's not if you put a bit of effort into it.

I’m not familiar with the situation you’re referring to, but my experience was different.

From my side, the collaboration was positive and genuinely respectful.

Just wanted to share another perspective.

That isn’t necessarily “different”. Someone with truly horrifying opinions can be genuinely respectful and pleasant to work with, unless you fall into the wrong social group. (I know nothing about this guy’s opinions and don’t have much reason to care, either, I just feel the need to point out how people tend to overestimate the alignment between “nice people” and “people I agree with”. Much as they do the one between “nice people” and “people it’s worthwhile to listen to”, but that’s a story for another day.)

@mananaysiempre I completely agree with your point.

Thousands of serial rapists, murderers, and abusers also have the ability to be very positive, funny, and genuinely respectful to others when they choose to.

Would you like to share another perspective for them too?

By the sounds of it you're sharing the only perspective with any validity so far.

The bigger the loon, the more impressive the successes of campaign professionals.

Loons are also useful stepping stones. Use them for career progression and then cast them aside, you could even claim they abused you or took advantage of you and that you're excited to help <X> next who actually cares about the people.

Seems you have an issue with conservatism, but how is this related to the article?
