On the very last quote I pulled. Its not entirely in this article, but I remember hearing from him in an interview somewhere that he was a bit surprised who reached out to him post-election and who generally didn't. His quote gets at it, in that a lot of his "political adversaries" or people maybe considered on the opposite end of the ideological spectrum reached out to him, but many of the people he thought as allies, shared similar beliefs and perspectives didn't. I'll see if I can track that down, it was an interesting reflection - and I hope I'm not misconstruing it.
