Expectations for many things (e.g. media, products) have been increasing -- constantly raising the bar. I read Enough, Cassidy Hutchenson's biography. I talked to someone recently who listened to the audiobook (from a pirated source). Ms. Hutchenson was in the program my son was at Christopher Newport University. I wished there was more detail regarding the professors, classes, and seminars there.
I enjoyed the book. It reminded me of living in DC in the nineties. Being young and struggling to juggle work and social lives in a busy metropolitan area. Frantic fun. Surrounded by periods of couchtime. I was amazed at how little the chief of staff for the chief of staff (and others in the executive administration) are paid. I remember being in dinner club with Capitol Hill staffers and thought they must be raking it in. They certainly attended interesting parties! Looking back, I believe we all struggled to pay our way.
It was good to get more background on the January 6th, 2021 events -- and those surrounding the last few months of the Trump administration. Most of my knowledge came from television -- whether news or prime-time dramas. It didn't change my opinion about many of the priniciple characters; maybe made some more human. It was comforting to know there are people (including, but not just Ms. Hutchenson) who put country before party. I was proud of my son's association with CNU and hope when a test is given he passes as Ms. Hutchenson does.
