@tallandtrue it's unfortunate that's such a gendered term. Today's closest equivalents would all seem to me to be women (NOT the orange monster though!)
@gerg True, it's gendered, but that's Linda Lingle's quote. In these days of disinformation and false news, etc, I feel it's important that we don't change people's words. And it this case, it's the "vibe" that counts, and my brain substitutes "statesmen" for good people of all genders. 😉
