"I never harbored delusions about a Trump presidency. Mr. Trump readily volunteered that his agenda was to disassemble our democracy, but I made a choice to stay at the Justice Department.."
It's great that Ms. Newland is now ready to tell us how bad she feels. Only when safely unemployed is there public remorse. Perhaps she feels better now. I don't.
I've noticed that too. How many GOPers who are leaving office or have left office now publicly state what a disaster Trump is versus how many say anything at all while they hold office. It's all about fearing Trump's violent base, death threats, all of that.
On one hand, it's hard to blame people who fear for their jobs, but "after the fact Jesus Moments" mean squat for us the living. I but I suppose since they get to confess they are let into heaven.
