That surprise twist came as a relief.
I always knew he was a Republican so it wasn't a surprise so much. I guess I might have hoped his world view had changed with his (god I hate this over-used word) journey. But because I knew, here are a couple of the things I took away from the whole show:
1) Motivational speakers tell you how to be a success and then walk off stage hating themselves because their only success is making money as motivational speakers.
2) As Frank Deford pointed out, Bruce doesn't actually HAVE any skills. He was the World's Greatest Athlete in 19 hundred and 76. He started then and continues to huckster income streams. While his (god I hate this over-used word) journey is difficult and arduous, he knows how to make it pay off for him.
3) I really hope to god her new name is Brenda Jennder but it's too much to ask of a person steeped in the privileges afforded a wealthy Repubican white male.
