He is a long time registered Republican. Why would you think he is “liberal”?

Edit: not a long time registered Republican, but voted for Trump in 2016. Very much an independent, https://factcheck.afp.com/doc.afp.com.36G99P8

Source for him being a long time registered republican?

As far as I can tell from here, this guy seems all over the place. He voted for Trump in 2016 but later regretted it. He supported Sanders in 2020, but also Gabbard in 2020 and then Vivek Ramaswamy in 2024. He shows strong support for Ukraine, but he supported Covid conspiracies as late as 2023. Multiple felonies, many of which firearm related, some of which related to theft and traffic violations.

It’s not like I can say I know the guy, but I get the sense that he has severe undiagnosed mental illness, which is perhaps more important than his exact political leaning.

I stand corrected, he is not a long time registered Republican but did vote for Trump. Still, nothing to say he is a “liberal” in my opinion, Ukraine is not a partisan issue except for US providing our old supplies/ weapons

Sounds like he’s easily influenced. A patsy dare I say.
