He was utterly disgusted with Trump and all the lies. He started the conversation too, very unusual around us. He'd closed his ears, at least to me, until the other day. He listens to a lot of podcasts including Joe Rogan and says a whole lot of people who had previously voted for Trump were angry and disillusioned that he'd said one thing over and over and was doing the exact opposite.
He didn't fall into the camp of the MAGA cultists exactly, but he has flirted with the conspiracy theory crowd after 9/11. Plus he has been vulnerable to propaganda and being influenced by friends and co-workers.
