      He seems to vacillate between different people he puts up on a pedestal every couple years. He’s big into the Joe Rogan podcast now and shilling for Musk.

      In the past it’s seems like it was Ron Paul, then Rand Paul, then Mitt Romney, then Ted Cruz, then Thomas Sowell, then Ben Sasse, etc. there may be others I missed. It’s basically the conservative du jour that is the most amazing person ever right now and because it’s basically hero worship by a different name, it’s not a rational position you can use rationality to argue against.
