holy cow I was just going to say, he SOUNDS good BUT I don't trust him!
First, what was that weird voice shift? just a dry mouth?
Second, he does the lie "tell" of shifting his eyes to the right
Third, the pupils of his eyes aren't quite circular. Have that almost inverted triangular shape like a reptile.
Fourth, he looks Jewish, he's pro-Israel [FAKE Israel, that is Rev 2:9]

I think his answers might've been staged
He wants to appeal to the religious right

Thank you for stepping out and posting this. When he first began to speak, I thought "wow". He gave me chills. But than he kept talking and it was a little over the top. And yet, he talked somemoreand it was over the top. And yet, still, he talked on until Shakespeare's line came to mind....."Me thinks thou protesteth too much". Now, I don't trust him.

we have been burned so many times with planted opposition

I hope he is a white hat in a mask
