I think all of the worries I expressed during my discussion with David Bailey have panned out 100%. We see Bitcoin and MAGA completely intertwined and regular folks less able to differentiate between Bitcoin and Crypto. Many people seem less willing to engage with me because the assume I must support Trump. So, yes David Bailey aggressively courting Trump has made wider adoption more difficult.

My wife really hated your review of my book. I'm not sure Bitcoin has moved me much on the progressive vs. Libertarian with a strong social ethos. I am still proud to call myself a progressive and try to engage with people about the pro-social aspects of Bitcoin. I will always hold that there is a role for government in our society and am willing to accept that bitcoin can help make that government more transparent, effective and responsive.
