Most people change their political ideologies as they go through life, experience new things, and continue to learn.  This is natural, and the vast majority of these folks are perfectly honest and sincere.

On the other hand, there are people like JD Vance, Tulsi Gabbard, and, of course, Donald Trump, who are simply opportunists.  They would try to convince you that day is night if they thought it would further their careers.

They count on Americans to accept things like the following:  Last June, we obliterated Iran’s nuclear weapons capability.  Now we have to re-obliterate it.

There is a huge audience of American fools who are thinking: makes perfect sense to me! When we get finished with this war, we’re gonna  f*** it up again!

Within the realm of political punditry, I’ve always wondered if people like Rush Limbaugh actually believe what he told their wildly receptive American audience.  Is he really a hateful moron, or was he, just like the televangelists, just another career actor, looting the bank accounts of our nation’s idiots?
