Bill,
Enjoy your schadenfreude. I might note one important difference in the 2 parties response to their internal miscreants. In general, the Republicans have been complicit until circumstances absolutely compel them to speak out. Indeed, from the beginning of the Bigot-In-Chief's promulgation of the racist theory of President Obama's citizenship, most Republicans have either turned a blind eye or enabled the rising intolerance of a crucial part of their base. In contrast, the Democratic calls for Governor Northam to resign have been long and loud, and will likely continue until he does so. I think the same fate awaits Virginia's his Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General.
We disagree about a lot in American cultural and political life but we agree on this. Overt racism and sexual harassment are intolerable, anytime, anywhere.
Eli
