I don't like his politics, but he's been very critical of the orangutan for over 2 years now.
I agree he's angling for future leadership with a show of political courage & providing evidence he's not on the crazy train.
But, in fairness, this criticism is nothing new.
Is he an opportunist? Yes. Is he angling for something bigger? Yes. Has he been toeing the line until now? No!
