    Not that I know everything about him but if he didn’t say that I wouldn’t have known. He’s even told me a bit of his personal life in which government assistance saved his bacon and corporate America screwed him.

      It’s a little difficult to separate the politics off and put it into a different category altogether. He supports having the government be shitty to people he doesn’t like. I have no doubt he could be nice in the pejorative sense – like in the difference between nice people and kind people or in the “nice guy” meme sense – but many doubts that he’s actually a really nice guy in any sincere way.

      It’s easier to say you just don’t really know him. I think it’s similar to the neighbors saying how the serial killer really seemed like a great guy when the reporters interview them. He wasn’t a great guy, you just didn’t know who he really was.
