Exactly - their brains are wired for it - they use their amygala, the seat of emotions for reasoning. We use our ACC, the seat of logic. There's a book on it - Predisposed: Liberals, Conservatives & the Biology of Political Differences, by Hibbing, et al.
It's really interesting.

This entire administration is ridiculous, it would be laughable if it weren't so terribly dangerous. I think it will take years to recover.

And he insists it's a fake: firstly, who the hell would fake this 25 or whatever years ago; secondly, he's signed other missives in exactly the same manner.

Yep, he does, but the things he brags about are good for CA. We haven't had a shy, retiring governor in my lifetime, & we've had worse - surely you recall our 'governator'? And, again, most politicians are braggarts, he's just more overt than many, right now, anyway. Have a good evening (morning?).

I guess we'll agree to disagree, he's doing a great job for our state, & I love the way he's trolling Trump, no other politician in power has done anything like it. He can come off as arrogant, but I know of no politician who not. I do love both your governor & SOS, they're both excellent. Good job!

To whom are you referring? I can't find this post.

I thought so, too. So glad you liked it.
