18. Oh, so Mr. Morgan prefers people who agreed with him at cocktail parties?

'cause that's who he's going to vote for.
I guess at a certain level, the thinking is you can just buy the right cards to build your unbeatable fantasy deck.
But that doesn't matter if the type of play you prefer is not the type of play everyone else in the room is doing.
Your shiny foil $1k "One Ring" card is useless if no one else is going to be affected when you play it.
