He knew what his character and ethics were the entire time he was working at the White House. They all do (except maybe Kushner and Miller, who so align with him that they don't see neofascism as a bad thing). Many ex-officials are now saying it, and it needs to be said.
Former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly: "I think we need to look harder at who we elect. I think we should look at people that are running for office and put them through the filter: What is their character like? What are their ethics?"

Yeah, but Trump only cares about that stuff when they stop kowtowing to him (I kept it clean, but this was not my first phrasing)

They’re all bunker boys.

The second a person announces they are running for public office, every minute of their day should be video recorded.

People need to be honest about why they go along w/ ppl like Trump. They get paid VERY well. They can go buy a house, literally, wherever they want. They just have to lie for their boss for a few years. I mean, someone offers you, literally, 600,000/1 mil/2 mil, to tell lies...

Marianne, when you throw words like "neofascism" around so easily, it makes me question your character. Just saying.

...most people are gonna do it. They'll lie their ass off. Say what needs to be said. Then, they'll leave the job, cash the check, go buy that house, and then tell everyone what an asshole their boss was. This isn't hard to understand.
