      He says a lot of stuff, but then when push comes to shove, he usually either doesn’t follow through or starts capitulating to the right. Frankly, he’s clearly gunning for the presidency, which is why he’s outwardly taking such an adversarial stance to Trump. If he gets elected, it’ll be just back to the status quo (which is at least better than Trump, but it’s still not good).

      Stuff like the gerrymandering plan benefits him, which is why he’s actually going through with it.
