Vivek drops

Drops out and endorses Trump. Not a shock but still disappointing. I’d be happier if he quit without betraying his followers.

He’s too realistic to believe he ever had a chance. From the start he was obviously auditioning or rehearsing for something else, probably not a conventional political office.

I still like Vivek. He brought some infinitely valuable OLD ways of working (FDR style) back into politics for a while, and I’ll keep watching to see where he goes next.

Campaign email thanked contributors, then asked us to stick around for the “next chapter”. Yes, I will. In Duane Jones’s terms, Vivek repeats when sampled.
