Meaning
This reads as a sharp political break from personal feeling. It acknowledges familiarity and even warmth toward his family, but makes clear that private regard does not turn into public support, especially when the office at stake is so large. In a campaign setting, it lands as a refusal to let courtesy blur the seriousness of opposition.
