Ralph Northam is soon to be the former governor of Virginia. Northam must think this terribly unfair. He has lived admirably: Army doctor treating those wounded in the Persian Gulf War, pediatrician who volunteered at a children’s hospice. Republicans, fitfully, appear to be coming to terms with this, too, even as they continue to avert their gaze from Trump’s behavior. But while Trump seems uniquely immune to shame and disgrace, the rest of our politicians remain vulnerable to opprobrium.
