Her resignation was NOT quitting. It was the EXACT opposite.

_____________________________________

Resigning is the EXACT opposite of quitting? In what universe? Certainly not on earth.

From the thesaurus....

Main Entry: resign

Part of Speech: verb

Definition: give up responsibility

Synonyms: abandon, abdicate, bail out, bow out, capitulate, cease work, cede, demit, divorce oneself from, drop, drop out, end service, fold, forgo, forsake, give notice, give up the ship, hand in resignation, hand over, hang it up, leave, ***quit***, relinquish, renounce, retire, secede, separate oneself from, sign off, stand aside, stand down, step down, ***surrender***, terminate, ***throw in the towel***, turn over, vacate, waive, walk out, wash hands of, ***yield***

Resign = quit, surrender, throw in the towel, yield.

You are flipping nuts if you really believe that you can re-define the language for the American voter.

And, the fact that you feel you have to re-define words to mean the opposite of what they do just shows how desperate you are.

I’m afraid you are in a little box unable to think outside it.
