    I think it’s supposed to be vague enough that they can tell “moderates” it means “finish the conflict” but the MAGAs understand it as “final solution.”

        I don’t think he walks in there with notecards, no. I think he’s in the habit of trying to talk like Stringer Bell about things after decades of being a modestly successful white collar criminal. I think that at this point answering questions with vague phrases isn’t a conscious strategy so much as just part of who he is.
