Another VDH hit
From the article:
"There are thousands of qualified attorneys nationwide. Hundreds have worked in the past at DOJ or FBI offices, who now live, operate and think in a way quite distant from the status quo in New York and Washington.
Far from being sources of reassurance, the résumés of the Mueller team are what explains its current lack of public confidence.
Oddly, after the 2016 election one would have thought all the old rubrics of excellence would have become suspect—given that the polling establishment, political grandees, and the East Coast punditocracy had little clue about how or why Donald Trump had a shot at winning the presidency."
[...]
The result is that the deities of Washington and New York still do not
quite know how and why Trump was elected, or why he well might be
reelected—the result of half the country’s profound lack of confidence
in the morality and competence of the coastal and gentry managerial
classes. And to the degree our elite think they know why many Americans
believe that their reputations are undeserved, it is a revelation so
disturbing that they are not by background, education, and experience
capable of understanding, appreciating, or responding to it.
