I like your theory but I've always had a different one about Scott. He's the manifestation of dogbert. Always trying to manipulate people to further his own interests. The whole right-wing spiel he's putting on is just to sell his books. He's neither right- nor left wing. In fact I think he's politically quite agnostic. But catering to a right wing audience is easy, the lines you need to deliver are quickly learned and you can turn them into a devout following. Exactly what dogbert would desire. Notice that in most of his podcasts / videos / blogposts he mentions a book he's selling.
