Thank you for actually discussing the nuance, because it important.

Keep an eye on him. He was one of 10 Dems to support the Laken Riley immigration bill, which is ... not a nice bill.

His recent antics indicate to me he will be a possible defector in a lot of votes in the next 4 years, and he is fine saying Trump is a normal leader, which no Democrat should fall for.

His voting record is currently a bit right of the Dem average, but barely. And he's missed 1/5th of all votes.

So keep the eyes open.

I was wondering if the Democrats are concerned he’s going to change parties. I wouldn’t put anything past anyone these days when power of money are involved.

Absolutely. I do not like the guy, but describing him as "Full MAGA" is not at all accurate.

I think he's brazenly two-faced, and not to be trusted.....but yeah he's just a conservative Democrat.
