I have a lot of friends who are Democrats, and they’re idiots. I always say they have big hearts and little brains. They do not understand how the real world works. Almost every single policy rolled out failed.”
Jamie Dimon
...
Yes these idiots with all their failed policies...

I think the better conclusion is not to point out the policies that have not failed, but to realize that someone who says such a blanket statement is not being rational. When us-versus-them takes over your brain too far, the "them" group can only ever be wrong for the simple reason that axiomatically only the "us" group can be correct or righteous.

I hadn't realized that Mr Dimon had fallen so deeply into that mental pit, so it's good to know.
