Governor Jay Inslee represents a heck of a lot of what I believe in.

I’m v. proud to be represented by him.

On the other hand, if he did something horrible and was impeached, that would not be an attack on me. That wouldn’t invalidate my beliefs.

Why is Trump any different?
What is it with this BS notion that we can’t throw Trump out on his ear without disenfranchising 75 million people? We absolutely can. The vast majority of them voted for a slate of policies, not one particular demagogue.
Followup, two minutes later. I'm very impressed by the instant unanimity of responses: the difference is that Jay Inslee is not key to (or even part of) my identity.

This seems right to me. Great observation.

I don't know what to do about it.
