Bizarre.
This is one of my favorite Trumpisms:
1. say crazy, inflamatory things about a topic to make yourself look big.
2. Call everyone else weak, sad liars when they say you clearly doesn't understand topic.
3. Months later, adopt passive, status-quo perspective on topic that others were advocating in the first place.
4. Justify the change in stance as being because nobody could appreciate how complicated the topic is, and how you are now an expert on it.
