1/ Before we all don sack cloth & ashes over Muller's political demise & the suppositions about his mental health - let's pause & remember all the vilely misoygnistic & personalised shit that was thrown at Helen Clark, Meteria Turei, Clare Curran et al & latterly is being thrown
2/ constantly at the PM - all of which hurts deeply, however much the victims of it rationalise it & are supported through it.
Let's not forget the way David Cunliffe was eviscerated by the Nats' PR machine, aided & abetted by RW media.

3/ I'm left wing to my core but I'm also a kind person & if Muller has genuinely had a breakdown I wish him a speedy recovery but only a numpty or an ideologue would choose to ignore the fact that he was fully complicit in brutally rolling the B Team; he thought he could lead
4/ the Nats, if not to electoral victory, at least to an honourable defeat; he must have known about the deep vein of dirty politicking that runs through his party & that chances were he'd get caught in its rip & if he didn't, he was too naive to stand a SCIH of surviving it.
5/ And I strongly suspect that there's a lot of political shit that's yet to hit the fan over Covidgate & he's either not up to fronting it, or he was in it up to his armpits.
