Above a certain level of power, there were never really any "good guys" in American politics-- just talented careerists who were good at doing their jobs and letting enough trickle down to the underclass to prevent a revolution.

Even in the wake of the Trump farce, where we're all desperate for a grown-up in charge, don't ever mistake mere administrative competence and diplomatic skills for moral principle. They're important... but they're not good enough, and we're never going to build _our_ future with _their_ elite ideals.
