After his political underdog bets 6-8 years ago got him into the white house briefly, I bet he feels emboldened to double down on this strategy.
He took those bets with asymmetric returns at the risk of complete social ostracizing in the Bay Area tech community, only to come out on top and retaining his access and control everywhere including at Facebook, all the way till now!
Thats pretty impressive, regardless of the topic or regime being discussed!
These are our role models, so don't be surprised to see more of this as others accumulate power and access.
I’ve personally found it fascinating how low the bar for access becomes when entrenched special interests leave the center all the way to far edges of the parties for causes that will never reach consensus. Its an amazing opportunity for new entrants. That’s personally how I look at the game and this has been largely successful over the last couple Congressional sessions.
