[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I ended up in the ballet coronavirus thread and that was a trip. I saw a few references to “DC Republican society” in there and was surprised that such a thing exists, given the transient nature of DC and politics, and that it was presented as something to aspire to. Is that a real thing? I assume the Democrats have their own counterpart? I’m not from the area, but it all seems rather silly.[/quote]

Yes it exists - in Chevy Chase area. Lots of people that have either been here their whole lives or others that have moved in and gone to private high school/prep school or college with them. Remember the "Women for Kavanaugh" group? That's them.[/quote]

Oh interesting; I didn't realize that it's so hyper-local.  I was aware that political affiliation groups existed, I didn't realize they're more insular here; I interpreted the ballet thread as referring to there being some long-standing Republican social hierarchy.  :lol:

14:35 is right, I've met fun friendly people on both sides of the aisle here.[/quote]
It’s not just Chevy Chase, it’s parts of upper NW, it’s Kalorama, its Georgetown, it’s Mass Ave Heights, it’s McLean. It’s wherever the money is, there’s going to be a subset of Republican think tankers and lobbyists and lawyers even in a very Democratic area.

Agree.  But fortunately most of these Republicans are fairly moderate.  Very few MAGA idiots.  Lifelong CC resident and Democrat.[/quote]
