Why talk about optics? This is not about what seems bad, it's about what US democracy deemed is a felony. If I was CF I wouldn't want a criminal mind working for me, how can you trust him when you know he lies and cover up.
I just don't understand this sort of detachment.

History showed us that unchecked Machiavellism causes dynamics to devolve to paranoidic-zero-sum social dynamics. Although is an aspect of our psychology we shouldn't just rationalize it as a force of nature. When we talk we cynically opt to talk about optics so casually that's exactly what we're doing.
