BOB CASEY WAS AN UNDERSTATED SENATOR. THEN CAME TRUMP
Last week The New York Times had a front page article outlining the evolution of Senator Robert P. Casey Junior and his change in attitude and demeanor since the election of Donald Trump. Now Casey was always on the side of the middle class but his stances have been more vocal. Like Casey, many of us have hardened our beliefs in the face of the Trump onslaught.
Perhaps Bob Casey is remembering the words of his late father who talked about public service. His mantra was, "What did you do when you had the power?" Maybe Bob Junior realizes this might be, for better or worse, his moment.
This is an excellent read. Here's the link:
