I mistook Larry Summers as Larry Elison (ex Oracle) previously and made a comment that it gone from bad to worse.

I was confused about that as his Wikipedia page didn’t show anything that bad, but didn’t want to get into that :D
He's a democratic swamp creature. He's a Rubinite economist who's been slinking around Washington since the Clinton administration. He was also the president of Harvard for a while and got a cameo in The Social Network.
