    After his accident, his head changed a massive amount. I suspect this will be his last term, then who knows what this guy will do. I’m thinking suicide is 80%.

      He understood her and used avoidance techniques. He doesn’t seem dumb, I think everyone was hoodwinked from the original recipe.

        As someone who had a friend who changed drastically after a TBI: it’s very much a real thing. My buddy went from “a bit of an asshole, but we definitely see eye-to-eye on political shit” to full maga idiocy in the space of a couple years after a bad biking accident.

          That might be true in your case, but there are no guarantees that this is the case here. He has a problematic past.
