Oh he definitely was the conservative that Ron P. or Patti were and are NOT. And I think it's very noticeable and sad how separated he is from "Nancy and Ron's" children. And I believe it's by design .. it would have to be. There's been no contact that I've seen between him and Nancy or the other two. I think he's been the "outsider" to Nancy, and that she tolerated him when Reagan was alive.
I don't see that continuing . . but I could be wrong.
I saw Michael give Nancy a hug at the funeral home before they went to the Library....and I've never heard Michael speak badly of Nancy....You MAY be "wrong."
"she tolerated him when Reagan was alive..."
That is also my perception. That's why prevailing prayer is in order. May the Lord heal the wounds.
See these, especially the bottom one.

I was wondering why Michael was never with the other Reagans. Sad that they couldn't find it within themselves to include him.</p>
Hmmmm, and here I saw Michael embracing and being embraced and kissed by Nancy, Ron and Patti on Monday.
