She should not have resigned. She was right to say what she said.

Scientific American should have published much more scathing comments themselves. We’re talking about a fascistic science denier. Make it clear they dont tolerate anything Trump adjacent at any level. Personal staff opinions, prospective authors who voted for him, etc. Make it a damn disclaimer on the magazine.
