Twitter Celebrates Sheriff Clarke Resignation: ‘Few People in Public Life as Terrible’

Milwaukee sheriff David Clarke submitted his resignation letter on Thursday, and many on social media were overjoyed.

But some opponents of the controversial sheriff, however, are concerned that the resignation might result in a high-profile spot on Fox, or perhaps even a job in the White House.

Here’s a sampling of the reaction on Twitter:

There are few people in public life as terrible as @SheriffClarke. Glad he'll be relegated to the far-right fringe. https://t.co/rjMbXML0v4
