he's a tool for trump. i mean this not disparagingly in any way, i would really like to stess.  as an implement he has a specific and focused purpose and when used for that purpose he has the chance to be highly effective. outside of his intended role he will be lackluster or outright inferior to a different person in that role. trump needs to point him in that one direction and give him free reign to cry havok and let slip the dogs of war. but only for that one specific purpose.   > 70 years old for that age, it's impressive
