“I assume I will...”
That’s the word you wish to take him for?
Another words, if he can come up with some stupid ass reason, he won’t support him. And it wouldn’t be seen as him lying.
This guy is a weasel.
Oh, I know.
I’ll take his word knowing full well his next words weasel him out. Thus, the corner. When this serpent strikes it will be at empty air.
