It’s very liberating.'” > “It’s freeing in a way. And I just think after beating all of that, I just really [want to] be able to say the things that I have to really believe in and not be afraid of if there’s any kind of blowback.” So essentially yes, the stroke made him a Republican. Pathetic and disappointing, but all too predictable.
