re: At this point Northam should just tell everyone to GFY.

The argument you’re making is that nobody can force anybody else to do anything. Yeah, you can put a gun to my head, but you still can’t force me to do what you want me to do. You’ll just have to kill me.

We know that already.

The point is, how badly does he want to be governor? Badly enough to withstand the pressure he’s going to face? His family? Does the position of Governor of Virginia even pay that much?

And when it’s all said and done, if he’s still intransigent about it all, the legislature can just go ahead and impeach him as being unfit to hold the office. He wouldn’t survive that.
