The guy that should have been elected in '16 instead of it?

Smart man with some great attributes, but I never saw him being an effective cross-party collaborator at that level.

Dude also had a mad "Who do you think you're talking to?"-type ego, and we saw what 4 years of that got us.
 
He was a great man who unfortunately will always be most known for his presentation to the UN which he didn't fully endorse but did so because he was a loyal soldier above all else.

Also, fuck covid.
