Kind of take some of the 'pressure' off of his need to be an a$$hole.

He can start out sounding like a reasonable person and then suddenly shift to behaving like a hack. He often seems like a man who isn't sure who he wants to be.

But he can also flip at times to sound like a nut.

In San Antonio he does buddy up more with Joaquin Castro at events vs the other Republican Rep Chip Roy (who is more like Trump and an awful human).

Mr. Hurd is a serious man. I do not agree with him on a lot of issues. But he is the only serious republican we see in the House today -- which is exactly why he is not running for re-election, as others here have noted.
