I haven’t seen him for many years now, but I doubt his overall attitude has changed on anything.
Frank is the ultimate mercenary. He was already making (in private) noises 15 years ago about how dismayed he was about the toxic state of American politics. But he never let his personal views get in the way of his business.
He recognized long ago that he possessed certain very marketable skills, and sold them to the highest bidder. The Republicans always had more money than we did, and so he works for them. He is the epitome of the man that cries all the way to the bank. His point of view, except in moments of rare candor, when the microphones and cameras are off, is that of whoever is paying for his services. Republican extremists can yell and scream all they want. They don’t pay Frank’s bills, and they therefore have no influence on his public statements or stances. If the DNC suddenly had fifty billion dollars to spend, and they were willing to spend a couple billion with Frank, you’d be amazed at how quickly the Biden agenda found its newest, and most skillful spokesman. The right would yell and scream because Frank had become a traitor, but that would be outright wrong. He worked them because they paid more. He’d work for us if we paid more, although at this point, he has worked for them for so long, I doubt many on our side would believe a sudden “seeing-the-light” on his part. Show him the light, show him the darkness, he doesn’t care. Show him the money. THAT is what he cares about.
