Some, including Kristol, Hook, and Podhoretz, later became key figures in the development of Neoconservatism.
There is also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Burnham, who could likely have been a better face for this meme as it loosely describes his positions (other than the last one).
I refuse to believe this is anywhere near true irl and not just an online meme

Jim Cramer was also a trot lmao
Yes, I'll take every share of socialism in one country you got
New theory just dropped: Cramer was a Trot so Trots must be wrong
What about Cosmo Kramer
He became a neocon because he put all his shares in Yugoslavia and lost them in the 90s.
Oh it's very real, arch neo-cons like Irving Cristal started off as Trots
Sometimes the socialist to neoliberal pipeline is generational
