He got lame later but people, fans and detractors both, don't seem to want to deal with what he very clearly wrote at the time. It's been sitting on the same static URL for 30 years. He gave reasonable suggestions for how politics could influence science. It wasn't STEM rulz, humanities droolz

Both the 22-year-olds and their 53-year-old manchild boss seem too immature to understand this isn’t just a fun gig; they’ve joined the mafia. Trump owns them for four straight years and if they lose his favor, any point along the way, they are going to go to prison.
