No one in “management” in the Democrats (or Republicans) has ever demonstrated anything that would be akin to “great technical skill”. It’s not like Chuck Schumer was like really good at the technical aspect of writing bills.
I’d say the core statement is true, just not as you’ve outlined it: empty suits who can charm and schmooze those in charge get hired and promoted and they’re neither good at business strategy nor personnel management.
Wild that a lawyer would take “wherever found” to indicate you can try to find them wherever.
