Who sells his brand of crazy to crazy people. That doesn't mean he believes his act. Arnold doesn't actually *believe* he's the Terminator. Maybe he finally is seeing that his own act could get us all killed and wants to back out. Maybe all the Russian shit (and maybe he knows more than he says) is freaking him out

Or as someone else said, he just doesn't want to back a loser and would support Trump if he was ahead.

to appeal to progressives.

Don't get taken in.

They know what buttons to push on the right and left. It's about amassing their own fortunes.

with a bullshit line that all of the RW crap he and others spewed over the past few years weren't dog whistles.

I guess I'm glad he's not a Trupmlodyte, but I have no illusions that Beck is somehow aligned with progressives. He's not on our side.
