Mention that stuff and you’ll get the tried but true excuse ‘that was years ago!’
Trumps little transformation didn’t really hit the ground until 2011 when a year after he saw the tea party wave while he was considering running for Prez. in 2012. He\s so transparently obvious and such a damn fake.
A friend wanted to know what I think of Trump.
I said he’s telling me what I want to hear, BUT I DON’T TRUST HIM!
Later I thought, he’s not always telling me what I want to hear either - the REAL Donald Trump sometimes comes out.
