    What it comes down to is that Adams doesn't have TDS and can formulate a T-chart of the pros and cons of the situation. He predicted that Trump was going to win in 2016 because he was the better candidate and better at persuasion than Hillary could ever hope to be. Since then he has turned from a meh feeling toward Trump to thinking the T-chart of American success weighs heavily that Trump is more pro than con. He criticizes Trump on a regular basis but finds overall he is doing a good job. Because of his bet that Trump would win in '16 he has lost his primary source of income (speaking engagements) and estimates over the four years at least ten million in losses (net worth is ~90). He identifies as left of Bernie when it comes to policy but is a hawk on China. Doesn't appear to support a wall, but notes that all the high up politicians in both parties supported it until Trump did, so its pointless to debate as party level opposition is currently fake.

    source: have listened to him twice daily since the pandemic began, and once daily for the three+ years before that.

    ... Trump is more pro than con

    Hmmm... my opinion of Trump is that he's a Pro at being a Con. Just my opinion.
