Asa Hutchinson was performing the ritual BS meant to assure us ‘the grown-ups are in charge and certainly don’t approve of the bad kidz’. This schtick cools the villagers’ nerves and placates the legacy media. The subtext is ‘the sane GOP will come to the rescue, governors like Asa, Hogan and Sununu and all will be well’.
Except that they won’t and can’t, and these tepid little performances of cover-up by them are fleeting and
irrelevant.
