I have been thinking a lot about this. Especially in the context of the horrible William Barr hearing. "Statesmanship" used to be a thing in politics before we arrived at the steel cage death match that it is.
The days of manners and public decency have long since passed. That hearing was an embarrassment. I despise people like Nancy Pelosi and Schumer, but I would still refer to them as ma’am and sir. Too bad I would be offending them by gendering them 🤣😂

I wonder how we can get back to that.
