So much for “man code”.

It’s like Charles posted downstairs, this wasn’t the “man code,” it was the “mafia code.” The GOP have adopted their own version of “omerta,” with party members under an unspoken obligation to cover for the Don and to do his bidding without question or objection. What happened her was a breach of that, as “omerta” says that Raffensperger was supposed to do as Trump wanted, or at the very least keep quiet about being asked to do so. That he not only told, but that he released the taped conversation, is thus a grave breach and is likely to be held against him if he should choose to seek higher office in the near future.
