I still don't trust him. But I agree with him and think having someone from within the party say something like that probably does more than 1000 democratic reps saying it.

Republicans only understand game theory. It's an eye for an eye. If you get hit, you hit back.

Altruism is not in the Republican vocabulary. Make sure to collect your karma points.
