Thiel has had plenty of interesting opinions and nobody faulted him for talking about them. When he helped elect a senile crazy person to be president though, that was just awful. Not something that challenges anyone's world view. Nobody has been enlightened by that process or by Trump.

It kind of seems to me that only reason for Thiel to back someone like Trump was because of the Palantir deal.
The fact that he still unapologetically believes Trump was better than Clinton betrays his underlying thinking and his lack of commitment to reassessing his beliefs.
About half the country has the opposite opinion to you.
