Well at this point he can say these things because he knows that most people who listen to him already know or at least suspect such things. So he can earn points with those who are listening and possibly get them to follow him more because he has had this supposed epiphany. I think the truth is he knew it all along, it is all a carefully scripted and planned game to continue to lead the American people away from where they should be going. It's pied piper crap. Listen to him if you want but as with anything else, trust but verify.
