In Defense of Tom Sandoval
As the season nears its end and attendance at the nightly gatherings decreases, Sandoval – a man with scant allies, minimal victories, numerous blunders, and most recently, a Freudian slip suggesting “women are better cheaters” which led to a massive backlash from his peers – has managed to outlast almost all of his Bravo co-stars. Regardless of his intentions, the “cheaters” comment (he maintains he meant to say “Traitors”) solidified his position within the castle, on the show, and in society: Sandoval plays the role of Pagliacci, a tragic clown and enduring jester for The Traitors.
