There are very, very few honest politicians out there. Let this be a reminder.
It's from the musical "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas". Reminds me of a lot of what we're seeing and hearing on the news and social media at present, from both major parties. I think, if you ask a lot of those recently affected by hurricanes in Georgia and North Carolina, they'd recognize a lot of that behavior in their local and state politicians - but those in the rest of the country, with a few honorable exceptions, wouldn't be much different, or much better.
"Put not your trust in princes" - or in their democratic/republican equivalent, politicians.

That turn by Charles Durning was the best part of that movie - and so true of our Texas politicians.
