| Mar 15, 2017 at 13:10 | comment | added | Davo | Does it make more sense if you read it as: I have as much confidence in you as (I have confidence) in him? "As" preforms the same function in sentence two as it does in sentence one; it indicates an equivalent amount in both parts (I have as much X in condition one as I have X in condition two). | |
