politicians
who say „tough choices“are rarely effected by consequencesLyndon Johnson pushed the Civil Rights Act. He was a Southern Democrat and he knew that his party would lose a lot of votes.
One of the instances where a politician was actually affected by a policy.
Bobby Kennedy, when campaigning, was heckled many, many times by people wanting to know “who was going to pay” for all of his social safety net plans.
And he had the balls to say: “You are.”
If we ever get a Mamdani type within sniffing distance of the presidency, I hate to think it, but expect they’d meet the same end Bobby did.
BINGO, tough choices are just choices they ignore, but are necessary for a healthy country!
