    Do you have a source for where he said this?

    It was a 1993 opioin piece in his college newspaper

    Before you say “but that was ages ago! He’s evolved since then!”, I’d like to point out that at no time during the intervening 30 years has he distanced himself from it, until the moment it might be a hindrance to getting a prestigious gig as VP.

    Call me a cynic, but I find it extremely unlikely that he’s being sincere rather than just doing disingenuous damage control in order to become the designated White House Hasbarist after Biden vacates that position.
