I see other issues too. The article claims he is a "frequent" contributor to Real Clear Politics but his profile page on that site shows only one contribution. Searching for his name shows only two commentaries by him. The word "frequent" doesn't belong, and this one example makes me question whether other misrepresentations are in this draft. ~Anachronist (talk) 19:52, 6 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The Politico and Roll Call sources show all the tell-tale signs of having been generated by press releases or public relations activities by the Private Equity Growth Capital Council. Where is the truly independent coverage? And why does the draft glaringly tell us nothing about his political views during the Trump era? Astute reviewers will be wondering.

As for the language used to describe his contributions to RealClearPolitics, I mistakenly incorporated the number of times he’s been quoted in political analysis pieces on the website (such as in this piece). He’s only written two op-eds, so definitely not a frequent op-ed contributor. This was a mix-up on my end, and I will fix this in the draft.
As for his political views during the Trump era, he had already left politics/government by that point and was working in the private sector, so I didn't think it would be very relevant. FriendlyEtherealMoose (talk) 21:26, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Due to the Wall Street Journal paywall, I can only read the first few sentences of that article. But when it says according to an email he sent to colleagues, I wonder whether it is fully independent reporting. Cullen328 (talk) 21:40, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
