    I think it's because he's started to cater less to the extremes.

    Many of these big grifters are "distancing" themselves from MAGA because they don't want to be held accountable when the administration eventually changes.

    Of course none of them have actually changed. They just want that paycheck at the end of the day

    Ah, totally normal activities for the people currently in charge...yikes. They are parroting this "Low T" bullshit that men with microphones have been yapping about for years now without strong evidence to support their claims. While it is true that some men do suffer from low testosterone, I wouldn't call it an epidemic. ROFL They sure have an unhealthy obsession with manifesting toxic masculinity all the time. It's not a good look.

    So, yes to Manosphere pseudoscience, but no gender affirming care for trans troops.
