“Political narratives & policies matter, but they didn’t govern my choice. I find it easy to be attracted to, or repelled by, proposals on taxes, education & …other issues. But I believe that events & geopolitical & economic forces will, like strong tides, move policymakers where they ultimately must go. In practice, few admins travel the course they campaigned on. Circumstances change. Our president, therefore, must be more than a policymaker or a malleable reflection of the public’s passions.”
