He would always support Trump even after J6 rioters attacked the Capitol. Lately he has changed. He has become good friends with Ossoff over the last several months and has said on his show that the republicans have not done anything to make his life better over the last two years. I believe that there are many republicans feeling the same. Tonight on his show several callers attacked him for this endorsement. I worry about his safety now.
