Most of the Republicans I know (regular people, not politicians and not MAGAts) are good folks. They just live in the right wing media bubble and don't hear (or read) a lot of the bad things we hear about Republicans. The same can be said for our side. Our media bubble tends to filter out things that reflect badly on Democrats and focus on bad things about Republicans.

Yeah, I think he got into politics for one reason, so he could legally trade on insider information.
