He's not wrong, at least on the basis of the sentence you quoted. But why him, now? He's not a historian, or a law professor, or a political science expert. He's just a guy who happens to have a billion dollars. There are better reasons for quoting someone than they've got a billion dollars.

Except for my first couple months on, during which I saw some Trump supporters trolling, I've never seen a post on Bluesky that was "unwelcoming" to anyone other than Trump-supporter-adjacent trolls. In the abstract, I've never understood the desire to make something suck to make it last longer.
