I’m not surprised at all. In my view he was always a self-aggrandizing egotist, much like the person he now praises. His book was always fiction, another alternate reality. Pure mythology. So this supposedly about face was never real to begin with. He’s no less a grifter than his orange mentor.

Such promise. Seems to be a recurring siren song.

Kudos to Lord Acton.

Noah Feldman of Bloomberg has a column this week blaming Yale for alienating Vance (and Thomas and Alito) and turning them into extremists.

DeSantis, Cruz, vance. The whole lot of them are scared to death of trump but more importantly scared of his followers.

The only one with courage is Nikki Haley. The only one with character.

Feeling betrayed by the center you turn to those who lie to you as you need to believe what they say.
