"The Iowa Poll did a break-out on our strengths and weaknesses," he reported, "and we did pretty well in all groups. The only place where we were weak was among the farmers." Despite good prices, he continued, farmers "are still complaining." And he told a story. "Don't quote me on this, but one old farmer asked me the other day, 'Do you know how you can tell whether a baby is going to be a farmer? He's the one who cries before you hit him.'

Salinger was appointed to that seat after he died and then went on to fumble so badly he became the only Democratic incumbent to lose in the landslide year of 1964
We had California Kennedy (Tunney) and they replaced him with a self-hating Japanese conservative who LARPed as Scottish
"Talarico is RFK" no, Talarico is McGovern, Texas had RFK and rejected him
Cory Booker is sort of like Zohran Mamdani if Zohran had the politics of Bill Clinton but still wanted to make you think he was Zohran Mamdani, so you end up with big bold proposals that don’t really do anything and are stupid
Notably, Keynes did say that you need to increase taxes in times of plenty so you can decrease them in times of hardship!
