This is delicious! But how did you limit it to only those disgraced politicians? Remember James G. Watt, of the Reagan era? What about Anthony Weiner? Dennis Hastert? And the many Trump-associated disgraces, like Kirstjen Nielsen, Scott Pruitt, Michael Flynn? I guess there's only so much room in one quiz.
