but seems to me "throwing in the towel" is mighty rare....indicates the guy was in deep trouble and too stupid to quit as well.

1. Embarrassing that he wore something so divisive and nasty
2. Embarrassing that he is so into that message he wears designated garments
3. Embarrassing that the garment portrays a fake and world wide demeaning assumption that all are onboard with this message
4. Embarrassing that he portrays this message as a national representation that we are all wall builders against Mexico
5. Embarrassing that he deigns to represent the population of the USA
6. Embarrassing that he could not live up to his hyped message and is not 1st.
7. Embarrassing that he's a multi level loser
