Sounds rather opportunistic for the Dims....
Cathy hadn’t said his hated words back then, and CFA’s only “crime” at the time was Christianity.
Sounds like it was indeed his turn, and he brought the CFA chicken and everyone chowed down and no one complained, and someone suddenly remembered, “Hey, didn’t AW buy and bring CFA way back when?”
And as long as AW wasn’t the last to leave dinner, they can continue to claim that he just walked out.
