Yee haw! Yeah, lock her up!

Oh, wait. Trump uses an unsecured phone in the White House. Nevermind. I guess we are all cool with cyber security breeches now. Did she force secret service to illegally use money and resources on her commercial properties? Because that would be a serious.. oh, wait. Nope. We are way cool with that now too.

I found Greenspan a bit tricky because the picture is from decades ago, and he looks much older these days.

Sure, but when the rest of the pictures are recent, it's a bit odd to have one photo that's (by the looks of him) from half a century ago. I'm surprised they had colour photography when Greenspan was that young!

I actually lost interest before the first time. I think emulating Trump for his stand-up comedy skills is quite a reach even for those who think he's killin' it bigly as president. My shoes have better comedic chops.

If you want to renew your interest, you should just ask these people what crime she committed as a follow-up question. They'll mumble something about unsecured email, and then you can ask how that is a crime and which law it violates, and then the fun really starts. Because they have absolutely no freaking idea.

Booker is a Senator from New Jersey (D) and is considered noteworthy for his bipartisanship; Boehner was a Congressman from Ohio (R) and was also Speaker of the House for part of his time in office; Franken is a comic actor turned liberal politician who was a Senator from Minnesota (D), and Warren is a Senator from Massachusetts (D) known for her criticism of big business and the sleazy type of businessmen once known as "robber barons."

Boehner might also be recognizable to people because of his history of crying readily and fairly unabashedly.

Booker and Warren are also among the likely Democratic presidential hopefuls for 2020.

Level 90
Oct 9, 2018
Considering Warren tried to fake Native American heritage and Booker more admitted to sexually assaulting someone in his teen year, it would be quite hypocritical for either one to make it out of the nominating process after the last few weeks.

It is interesting how many of these folks are no longer in positions of power. It would be an eye opening quiz to have their current positions listed and see if we can fill in the names of the current occupants of the post.

I know who Alan Greenspan is, but I don't think I've ever seen him (maybe like once on the news when I was 16 and not paying attention). Yet seeing that photo, my first thought was "I bet that's Alan Greenspan."

I remember thinking when I did this quiz that it didn't feel quite right including RBG as a political figure. Not that I thought she wasn't. But the illusion of Supreme Court justices as operating outside of politics, as objective and interested only in sound legal theory, was so comforting. The past tense there is a hearbreaker.
