    There is a scummy side to humanity that nobody likes to see. I cannot speak for people who defend him repeatedly doing the indefensible: but tribalism is a helluva thing - and we could all do better to avoid it.

    Personally? I hope he is dragged kicking and screaming into court where he will be exposed and punished as the traitorous irredeemable scum I believe him to be.

    Politicians People in positions of power need to be held to a higher standard and should be scrutinized relentlessly. There are some deep flaws in our system and one would hope that if any good were to come of all of this… we are able to repair the damage done and patch some of these holes (and learn from them.)
