Great essay, Matt! In 2008 I strongly considered voting for John McCain too. (Then he selected Sarah Palin as his VP and made my choice much easier.) I deeply appreciated your thoughtful, common sense based argument for Kamala Harris and your clear admiration for the women with whom and under whom you have served. My son recently told me that when he describes me to a new friend who hasn't met me, he refers to me as a Boss Ass Bitch. I was flattered.
Very well written, Matt. I appreciate your vote of confidence for women in leadership positions. It’s very uplifting coming from the military and hearing this from a man who has been in the positions you have. Though, I am not endorsing any candidate for office, this essay is definitely provides a persuasive narrative to consider. I also appreciate your humbleness with the statement “I was wrong.” This is a very hard thing for all of us to do.
Immersive natural respect builds rapport, not violent force. Guess I'm not following the rhetoric logic here. Also anyone appointed by Trump feels suspect, although I can admit someone following Pompeo probably did feel like a godsend.

Matt,
Excellent article. I wish more people could see and read it as you make some very poignant points that might wake some people up.

I appreciate all of your writings. Congratulations and Good Luck with all that you do.
Any chance of running again in a possible special election?
Thanks so much Matt for your thoughtful piece.
