It's something, but I bet he'll fold like a Lawnchair just like last time

This might be an attempt to extract himself from that embarrassment, in which case he might not fold. On the other hand, it does raise the question of why he wasn't doing it before now, and what else could he be doing and isn't?

He’s an embarrassment, no way around it. He’d have to do a full about-face on his enablement if he wanted to salvage his reputation at all, and I don’t see him doing that.
