Nice enough young man.  Very well dressed and groomed for the role.  Nice big office and enough accolades on the wall to justify his position.  Anyway...I notice his Political Science degree on the wall and after we conducted our business, I felt inclined to ask his opinion because of a few subtle comments he made along the way (e.g. I wasn't wearing a mask and as soon as we got behind his door, he flung his off and said he hated it too) so, I had to ask about what he thought about this political climate.  His first address?  COVID.  Said, "It was the most brilliant political play we'd ever see...fear sells and makes it easy to govern and rule."  So I just asked point blank, "Do you think this is all bullshit?  His answer:  "Without question." He proceeded to go into great detail on it and a few other things.  We had some good discussion and some good laughs over the next half hour or so as I sat there in a golf pullover, cargo shorts, and, of course, my crocs and he sported a nice suite and a pair of $300 Allen Edmonds (shoes) and a time piece he should have spent a bit more on, LOL.  I just knew that cutesy, new BMW SUV in the lot was his also.

BTW...he's a registered Dem.   

did you bring your dog ?

He'd sit down in front of them and they'd ask where his BIL was...then just send him to the ATM for his brand of "high finance".

:lol:

And wtf does "careful" mean?  If you have something...use it.  Otherwise, just continue to bleed.  :lmao:

I don’t know...  I think Cruz is done if runs for re-election when his term is up.

Why do you really think they expected him to come to TX with a book of matches and start them some camp fires 🔥 or something?

Interesting. I guess I never really thought about it much but, it may just be the "up and coming" business peeps that keep a "love me/look at me wall" going.  After a while, I think it just looks junky (and tacky) and get's packed up in boxes.  :dunno:

Damn @Zambroskiyou think this guy got where he is by not being able to figure out what type of person he's dealing with? I guarantee he was acting and after you left he was telling his buddies about the "rube" from Minnesota he just roped in. LOL

Oldest trick in the sales book. You were dealing with a chameleon. :bc:

First thought I had too.....Derpbroski breaking bread and making life long besties with the salesman :lol:
