Yeah, I saw his response. Neither he nor Stewart came out of this looking good. And sandbagged or not, he really was ridiculously defensive on the show. It's somewhat understandable when he's the sole voice of dissent, and everybody else is ganging up on him, but I wish he'd handled himself better.
People need to hear the counterarguments to the "woke" insanity and even in his response he admitted that he did a bad job.
