Sucks to be him right about now:-) I've spent some time working with politicians and political parties in the past and I've seen first hand the panicked looks, stressed out phone calls, and "damage control" fire drill when someone sh*ts the bed dragging the whole team into the fray. I wouldn't be surprised if JT's chief of staff scheduled a conference call with multiple high-powered participants so that the heavyweights and others could witness to the crushing of Tabbara's soul as an example to others.
