Had he said, "I don't know" back then, he would have earned a lot more respect.
FWIW, early on in any novel situation, you have no way of knowing how much there is yet to learn. Often you make the mistake of assuming you've got the handle. Then as time goes on and the deal develops in new ways, you learn differently.
You don't know that you don't know, IOW.

You would have found it an issue a few month ago.
No, I really wouldn't.
My problem isn't with people who say they don't know. It's people who claim to be experts when they're fucking clueless.

You mean like Biden telling everyone we'll all get together for the 4th of July?

Some of us prefer to have opinions with non-zero information content.

Saying two people are idiots isn't zero-information content, moron.

I'll be watching for you to praise, even relatively, compared to the competition, some American politician, asshole.

I've said more than once that I much prefer Biden over his successor, even though I think he's pretty hopeless. I also like Charlie Baker, our governor. I like him considerably more than his Democrat predecessor, as it happens.
Did you mean to put the comma in after the word 'politician'? Because in my opinion it totally mucks up the sentence.

Thank you. I wouldn't consider Trump hatred, the most banal and commonplace political opinion in the country, to contain much information, but I'm glad to hear that you like Charlie Baker.

I actually quite liked Mitt Romney when he was governor of MA, too, however once he ran for President he appeared to be become a bit of a turd without any real core beliefs of his own.
Maybe it's easier to be less of a turd when you're working locally, although it has to be said there are plenty of those who do.

Yeah, I've always felt that with Romney, there's no there there.
