Politico: “Consistent with interviews with greater than 75 other folks — who’ve labored for him or towards him or each, who like him or don’t like him or used to — Mandel has been not anything if now not an keen reader and rider of political currents. And that, they are saying, has made Mandel a singularly bright lens by which to chart the deep, damn adjustments in politics, in Ohio, at the proper and general, over the process this remaining quarter-century.
“He doesn’t act the best way he used to behave, and he doesn’t communicate the best way he used to speak, say such a lot of Democrats and Republicans alike. And so they’re proper. He used to provide as extra average, used to evangelise bipartisanship and variety and civility, and not does. Most likely most significantly, he as soon as used to be conspicuously unsupportive of Trump, and now he has publicly pivoted to full-fledged MAGA.”
