Nietzsche said people betray themselves for the sake of their good name all the time. You can feel this. It seems to center in your solar plexus when you say something or do something that is not virtuous. Then you’ll disintegrate, and then you’re weak and you can feel that.

You're saying that as if he hadn't been giving lectures and speeches for at least a decade before that happened. Also, his "drug addiction" was an addiction to anxiety medication that was prescribed for him.
Imagine watching someone having withdrawal so bad that they're on the verge of death for 2 years and all you can muster about them is "he couldn't deal with his addictions."
In Dante's inferno, the ninth and lowest circle of hell is reserved for the very worst of all human scum : traitors, just like pence.
