It sure makes sense.
The endorsement is extremely unlikely to decide the election.
On the contrary, the chance that the endorsement will lead to retribution after a lost election is arguably much higher. They think it happened last time around.
You can say it's cowardly to act like this. But it does make sense.
- heresie-dabord 2y ago> say it's cowardly to act like this. But it does make sense. So cowardice has been the greater virtue all along? Has it come to this, that political cowardice makes sense? That it makes sense when Democracy itself is at risk? That it makes sense in Journalism? That it makes sense at the newspaper of Bob Woodward [1] , now run by a billionaire with no guts to stand for Democracy itself? That other oligarchs are tilting the election towards the obvious insanity of a leader who, in word and deed, will dismantle Democracy to indulge himself and his cronies? We have sanewashed madness and the end of Democracy. [1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy_Dies_in_Darkness https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy_Dies_in_Darkness
