Interesting angle. But resigning would require a sense of humility.

Besides, and regardless of the evidence, the impeachment inquiry thus far has been entirely partisan. Dude’s got a chance Senate republicans continue to march in step and play dumdum for him throughout a trial.

His regular fear of being poisoned got the best of him for some reason and he had to rush to Walter Reed?
