    This is as close as I can get to respecting one of these guys.

    Not real respect, but an appreciation that some of them still feel a sense shame.

    Maybe it isn’t exactly promising, but it is a glimmering turd in a sea of shit.

      Shame?

      “I know that this decision will upset many, and delight others, but in this political climate I must keep my family safe,” Douglass said

      He’s resigning because the left is so viowent and scawy, not because he’s ashamed. We’ll all have forgotten his name in 2 weeks and he’ll have a better job somewhere else, pulling the exact same shit.

      I wish I could feel confident that this is why, but it was probably that they were told they needed to resign or they’d be fired because their involvement is bad for business.
