      He left trumps orbit last time he was president because Trump withdrew from the Paris Accord.

      Now he doesn’t give a fuck about that or similar things.

      He’s definitely more crazy / things changed.

        He used to depend on that climate money and press for his car business.
        Now he can shovel tax money directly into his own pocket, so he doesn’t need to pretend anymore.

          That used to be enough. If the market can steer billionaire behavior toward good, we should let it. I can accept that someone who is inherently bad can do good.

          But then, he started all this alt right nonsense. He either wholely believes in it, making him trash, or he doesn’t, and he’s doing it anyway because he thinks it’s best for his company, which IMHO is somehow way worse, or at least an indicator that things in general are way worse.

      I dont remember a time where I both knew of him and thought he was a sane or rational person.
