Lee Zeldin
The Disruptor
Contrarian and drawn to the edge; challenges the settled answer.
Lee Zeldin fits the Disruptor archetype because his tenure at the EPA has been defined by rapid, sweeping challenges to the agency's established direction rather than incremental adjustment.
“I have to tell you, I think when America becomes more than competitive, I mean, when we're going in a different direction and it's cheaper and it's better, I just think the world needed leadership and the world now has leadership.”
“I think there's three things that we have to come away with today. One, I don't care if it is Valentine's Day, don't see Wuthering Heights. It's an abomination. They took one of the most beautiful stories of all time and made it absolutely ugly in every possible way they could.”
“That's what Donald Trump is doing. We're not going to, Hillary Clinton's like gave her the reset button. Remember that? We're best friends. We're never going to be friends with Putin. We shouldn't want to be friends with Putin.”
“Bet. I'm going to tell you, these states, you know, we look at these states and we're like, oh, you know, we're fine. We're fine. We're going to be fine. No, you're not. No, you're not, especially with the demographic shift. I'm worried about, I'm really worried about Utah. I think Utah's ripe for the picking right now.”
