Fat Mike is not going to do the honorable thing here. Get real.
well it's not about honor, it's about protecting humongous strides he made in his career over the last 20 years. He went from owning a successful aviation parts company to serving in the KS legislature, to running the CIA, to SoS in a relatively short time. And I'm skeptical he deserved those last couple titles, and he probably knows it. He's got way more influential people in his world than Trump, and he's got some years left yet to cement his legacy. He'd be a damn fool not to roll over.
My agreement with your conclusion is based at least in part on his previous public attempts to distance himself from the whole thing, and the fact that today’s story feels a lot like someone in the administration’s orbit chaining him to the mast before he can jump.
I hadn't even considered that, but yes totally

$10 says Pompeo sings like a bird. He's a Tea Party Republican, former US Army officer, and late-career intelligence hawk. Unlike most of the cronies surrounding Trump, I don't think he's been on board so much for his own benefit, but rather for his own sense of patriotism and duty. He's now like the babysitter who got busted sleeping on the job, and he's got everything to gain by turning on Trump.
Sorry homie but I think you're dead wrong on this one. Pompeo is a blood and soil psychopath who thinks he's part of an existential struggle for human civilization, he's not going to give up his big wet boy for this.

I'm going to need a more specific definition of "sings," but sure.
