always surrounded himself with sociopaths. He's a fool. A liar. A misogynist. A dyslexic intellectually. And now he is the alt right's and Putin's fool. He is dangerous because the chaos he creates around himself will give opportunity to sociopaths. They are right about that.

Otherwise you're spot on about Trump. You just owe an apology to many highly intelligent dyslexics.

Dyslexia is just a different way the brain organizes. Einstein was a dyslexic. So was Jack Kennedy. Churchill. George W. Bush. So you see that dyslexics have an advantage when they are in politics. But they can be used if they have little self knowledge like George W. Bush was. Trump will be used. His team has already offered domestic and foreign affairs to the VP. Trump will be a chaotic usefully idiot. He isn't an idiot because he's dyslexic. He's just an idiot.

The thing I think most about is that the people who created Trump are now on our side, like Jonah Goldberg.

What do you do with that? Do we embrace them? Megyn Kelly is helping our side now.

I can never forget what they did, but is the practical thing to do is support their careers because it helps us?

I don't know.
