From the office of Big Ideas

From the White House's Idea Guy (IG):

Wehner also examined why the 43rd president of the United States has become such a polarizing political figure, after having arrived in Washington with a promise to unite the country and change the tone in Washington. "My view, as I read history, is that almost all consequential figures -- political figures -- are polarizing figures," he said, because they are bold and tackle significant issues.

He ticks off other political figures he says were polarizing, from Franklin D. Roosevelt to the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. to Ronald Reagan to Margaret Thatcher. After 2000, Bush's opponents expected a milquetoast president, Wehner said, but instead they got someone who liked to swing for the fences.

No, he's a polarizing figure because he lies and misleads in the service of his "big ideas."

If that's the best they can do, looks like the IG is yet another YG ("Yes Guy").
