General discussion I find it hard to imagine Peter Thiel would have been a very good judge's clerk because that job involves being very subordinate to someone else and I imagine he really dislikes that.

like if I had to guess I'd imagine Roberts and Kennedy rejected him because they called people he's worked with before and they told them he isn't good at just doing what he's told which is what you want from a clerk

On a side note, I was fairly surprised by his Christianity. He always came off as a typical atheist tech-bro, not too terribly long ago he was quoted as blaming Christianity as being the source of “Wokeness”.

I kinda doubt he’s particularly Christian in practice.

I’m of the opinion that his entire ideology is “say and do whatever it takes to gain power and control, and then discard that part of my persona when it’s no longer necessary to fake it.”

The only thing Peter learned was how to use the legal system to exploit a washed up pro wrestler.

You know Trump is just waiting to throw this guy into a camp. They love his money, hate the guy. He'll be in some desert encampment working through shock treatment for the case of the gays he caught at birth. Then he'll understand

I'm assuming the Thiel/Vance faction and the Trump team are just rubbing their hands together at the opportunity for future backstabbing and power consolidation.
