So much can be revealed in an off-the-cuff remark. I saw this on Gab so I don’t have any context, but I don’t doubt the validity.

The reality is that solid, traditional/conservative men don’t want to get involved with the cesspool that is D.C. They don’t want to have a wife and family in that kind of environment. Maybe eventually if it gets cleaned up. But quality, family man type men? Why would they want to put themselves in such an atmosphere?
