I'm feeling 3 emotions simultaniously - I think dropping out was the right move, the patriotic thing, the best thing for his legacy, and I'm happy he did so. I'm also feeing this sense of sadness, like I'm saying good-bye to someone I feel like I've had a relationship with for years. And, lastly, I'm also concerned about what happens now. Lots of feels. I hope some of these can be discussed in the live session, but if not, I'm still happy to have The Bulwark as an outlet for concerned citizens of all stripes.
