It is kind of a shitty question with no good answer.

Here’s my shot at an answer. No way Vance would ever say this though:

“Honestly? They might not want to. My life is public service and politics, and politics is not the most attractive occupation. Its dealing with policy and compromise. You set high hopes for what you believe you can accomplish for America, but the reality is that you might come away with a fraction of that, at best. However, I’d certainly want to have a beer with them. Washington is far removed from Main street. Those of us in government that get too disconnected forget that our whole job is to make life better for the American people. That doesn’t mean talking at voters. That means listening to them. Understanding the challenges that occur in someone just trying to get through the day and make sure their family is taken care of. Those candid conversations can and do happen over a beer. That conversation with a voter over a beer is the most important event of my day because it guides me in my job to make their lives better.”
