    This might rub some folks the wrong way, but I have zero sympathy for him. Even if he feels betrayed, which is kind of understandable, that’s politics man, and sometimes it’s rough. Especially when the candidate can’t string together a coherent sentence.

    But since he’s been in positions with significant power for longer than most of us have been alive, you’d think he would have understood that about his chosen career by now? In presidential politics, the only thing that matters is winning, and he wasn’t going to win.

    Assuming he truly understands the stakes of the election, this was the most politically savvy decision he could have possibly made, so frankly it’s time to suck it up and enjoy the showers of love and praise he’s getting, and spend that government pension on some awesome vacations. Goodbye, and thank you for your service. Please lay off the whining, it’s not a great look.
