    Could be lip service; like a superficial gesture to retain some basic standing in the political sphere. Idk why this should be a big deal to anyone.

      Because it’s an affront to basic human decency. The man was pure evil and deserves either no comment or outright scorn.

      Imagine the optics if it was Hitler, you can see how such a comment would not be a good move - yes?

      I guarantee you, you do not need to glaze Dick fucking Cheney to “retain some basic standing in the political sphere”.
