36. Why did he move there?

I think you give him too much credit as far as his personal ideals and worldview. He may not genuinely like Flores-type candidates but he has enough power to influence in ways that don't put the craziest of crazies in office. He does some good things (Ukraine) but I think he holds too many selfish libertarian views which are generally destructive. Nah, I think he's more on board with the Red Wave than you seem to. Difference of opinion.
