HOW TO REBOOT THE WEST WING.
<THREAD>
It’s the funeral of President Bartlet.
The door opens - and out steps CJ Cregg.
Charlie, after Georgetown had worked in Democratic politics for 20 years. He was back as CJ’s campaign manager.
CJ’s bodyman? Anthony Marcus.
The establishment is still nervous about embracing him given his history.
But there’s a problem: Josh is burned out. After Santos lost reelection, he was devastated and felt personal responsibility.
Maybe this time this core group would be a bit more diverse.
D’Onofio would make hay out of CJ’s, umm, cosy relationship, with the press.
