Over the years, Dondero just got weirder and weirder. At the beginning, he worked with lots of people, Republicans, Libertarians, etc. Then he just fell apart over advocating prostitution. Then that really bad book. His wife and those beating/abuse stories, etc. At one time, Dondero was respected in many circles but he turned into a contrarian wacko that attacked everyone and everything around him. He’s so radioactive no one who once associated with him will have anything to do with him now. Truly, he is pitiable. He’d had a bright future ahead of him.
