OK. But the other thing you said does not follow from that.

Perhaps you are unfamiliar with the term "usually." There are instances in which it turns a few times. In DC, for instance, it can turn many times.
Perhaps you are unfamiliar with Kamala Harris, who to my knowledge has worked for Alameda County, the City and County of San Francisco, the State of California, and as a U.S. Senator, but not in private practice. She hasn't left by any door, revolving or otherwise.

DC is full of revolving doors, but usually for political positions. Almost all prosecutors are career people. They tend to move between government service and private practice once, when they leave the former for the latter. That's a turnstile, not a revolving door. I was one of the few exceptions to that rule.

You are totally welcome to dislike her, and I'm sure you have many excellent reasons. But "corporate" is not the word you're looking for.
