That voters generally prefer government experience for the job of running the government which does make sense. That is why it is pretty common to attack a candidate by going after their experience and qualifications. Here is the special report about something that really matters and you may hear about at the debate next weekend into the election. President biden spent his life in government and everybody knows that.

That marks one of her most high Ranking Republican endorsements in this campaign probably the most iconic. Dick cheney is an Arch Conservative Hawk and a gop icon, a fixture running republican administrations as chief of Staff And War policy as Defense Sect and Vice President and during 9 11 and the wars in afghanistan and iraq.

And indeed this news right now tonight would have been unheard ever 10 or 15 years ago and cheney is far from a never trumper. He endorsed Donald Trump in 2018.
