    He doesn’t understand how complex compounds work or what they are

    Right. How the heck does he not understand this? How do you invest so much time in these topics, with a seemingly reasonable amount of intellect about some things, and completely ignore all the facts screaming at your face? I mean, maybe that brain worm is doing all the work.

    he belongs to the party that wants to deregulate

    He ran for president in '23 as a Democrat before switching to Independent. A lot of his work has been very much about pushing more government regulation. At the same time, he’s also pushing for the government to not push vaccines on people. So, I don’t think it’s so much about “government regulation” as a binary tent pole for him; which I do give him credit for.

    Total wack job.
