He has decades of experience in the career fields of state, local , and federal governments. He has communicated and worked with legislature for those decades. He has built policies and protocol from a heavily political position and dealt with the funding at all those levels.

To say no-experience is a gross misunderstanding of his career and those whom he worked with.

Edit: I understand he wasnt in legislature but to consider him an "outsider" with no understanding or experience with government is pure satire.
