3. Hmm. I wouldn't absolve Witkoff and Vance of blame - they're much more responsible for the current debacle

If I'd single out Rubio to fault, its because I think anyone with any self-respect in his position with all this conniving, secrecy and rash of internal bunkers in the administration should have either had the guts to take a stand and call it out and dare Trump to fire him, or resign in as demonstrative terms as he could muster.

History might be kinder to him if he did.
