That's all well and good. But he chose to work for a regime that is grounded in alternative realities and didn't speak up until he was out. He admitted that he didn't know wtf he was doing, and yet he accepted the appointment and the Senate's confirmation of that appointment. Where are his fucking ethics and principles?

And while his comments may be welcome now, he's still too cowardly to be more pointed that he was in that speech. The man was the CEO of one of the largest and most powerful companies in the world, and all we get is mealy-mouthed crap? Would he have been mealy mouthed to his employees? Would he have accepted mealy-mouthed BS from those employees? Sorry, Rex, but this isn't enough. You have the street and business creds to make a difference. But you have chosen not to. That makes you a coward and keeps you squarely aligned with the current regime and its acolytes and sycophants. Nice try, though.
