Just in case anyone else wants to put words in my mouth, I will rephrase my comment.

He pivoted to the right wing because he knew accusations were coming. As a right wing darling, he could claim the accusations were an attempt to “cancel him” and they would gobble it up.

As someone on this website said at least once; Brand’s hard pivot to far right antivaxxer makes a lot more sense (apart from the antivaxxer bit) if you assume he was expecting accusers to come forward.
