I wasn't friends with them when they did, but I can certainly see it happening. Sometimes you just go along to get along. A bunch of my old friends were ultra progressive, some were communists, some were gay. I was never into any of that, but just based on my upbringing, it's who I was around. I'm now considered - rightly or wrongly - a Far Right Radical, or whatever.
If I was the VP pick, I can all but guarantee some far leftists would recognize my name and contact journalists for some smear pieces. They drifted more left, I drifted more right, since we knew each other. But, yeah, some extremely progressive people would come out of the woodwork to say how I was once One of Them (I wasn't, but I hung around with some of those people, before they went that far.)
Again, don't really care that some tranny weirdo (who probably did further radicalize since Vance new it anyway) stabbed Vance in the back.
I have friends and family who have gone tranny.
