The tearful regret is wholly remorse over circumstances that personally affect self-preservation.
I hear no evidence from many of these revelations that their moral or ethical convictions that are deeply rooted in racist, xenophobic conviction have been altered.
Nothing that indicates their compass directionally exhibits empathy towards the lives of others; merely their own plight.
Trump voters were moved only by an agenda that cast hate against those who they thought were lesser beings.
Their regret is meaningless in my opinion until theyve demonstrated they are willing to advocate for the collective good of all; not only who they feel deserving.
