      Out of curiosity - I googled the guy. I couldn't even remember his name - haha. He retired in 2020 at 83. And he died two years later.

      Mark Shields

      Mark Stephen Shields (May 25, 1937 – June 18, 2022) was an American political columnist, advisor, and commentator. He worked in leadership positions for many Democratic candidates' electoral campaigns. [...] Shields was a regular political commentator on the PBS NewsHour from 1988 to 2020.

      I wonder if in those 32 years of "analysis" he ever wrote or spoke a single sentence worthy of his audience's deep contemplation.
