Do you have any other sources beyond this one tweet (the very same one the poster you replied to mentioned)?
I'm genuinely curious, because I haven't heard much about him beyond that

I sure hope someone was fired for that blunder!
(he wasn't)

This article goes over both sides. I was super pissed off at Andy's tweet and response but hes not MAGA for it. The problem I had was that he was dumb enough not to be 100% opposed to Trump and dumb enough to try and give him the benefit of the doubt.
Benefit of doubt for hitler is pretty nazi.
No. That line of logic falls for me. There are plenty of things we've given the benefit of the doubt that we don't cosign or believe in even hitler. I'm not willing to write someone off as being MAGA because they said a positive thing about Trumps FCC pick. He doesnt need to be MAGA for that tweet to be a bad thing.
I am willing to lose trust in him for being stupid and thinking Lina Khan was a worse FCC chair when hes suppose to be an expert in this industry.
It's almost 2026 and people are still acting as if we don't already know that you can not give any of them the "benefit of the doubt".
No such thing as neutral on a moving train. Holding still is going right. A little jog in place is woke. Running for a better life, is, well... antifascist. (Howard Zinn had a little essay collection?)
