That Little Big Horn thing was unfortunate to be sure, but he was quite a good Civil War cavalry commander.
Maybe it’s the Peter principle that keeps him fast tracked.

William Pitt the Younger was Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Great Britain at the age of 24.
Then he got old and inflexible.
Back then we forget life spans were relatively short. People did not have the long life expectancies we have today. When you were forty, you were considered a "sage" and an "ancient". Twenty-five was middle-aged.
’ I was vice-president and general manager of a company at that age. ‘
Not a company like Kraft!
God is that ever true.
Years ago I would buy their "Cracker Barrel" brand cheddar cheese bars in the colored foil wrapping, they were terrific.
Until KRAFT got the brilliant idea to add the drug Natamycin, prescribed only for eye fungus infections, into their cheese producta to extend shelf life. Now the product will last forever on the shelf without spoilage.
I have not seen where there was any concern expressed anywhere in the scientific community, or by the FDA, regarding the introduction of this prescription anti-fungal drug into the food chain by KRAFT.
I don't think it's normal for folks to have to ingest anti-fungal eye drugs with their cheese. This drug isn't designed to be taken orally to begin with.
There are dozens of quality aged cheddar cheeses manufactured by other companies, none of which include the FDA-listed anti-fungal drug Natamycin. Just read the fine print.
This is a non-intended use for this drug. Did KRAFT get a ruling from the FDA approving Natamycin for antimicrobial use in cheese products? I would bet not!
How much do you suppose they might have donated to the "Clinton Global Initiative and Massage Parlour" ?
Time to short the stock, if this is a publicly traded company.
no doubt

He is a Private Equity guy who has been parachuted in by 3G. Feel sorry for the employees. Massive cost cutting ahead.
He’ll just use/let AI and computer algorithms make the most important decisions.
Just checked the refrigerator. There was a bar of Toblerone chocolate in there. Checked the box. It’s not a KRAFT product. It’s manufactured by Mondelez International. Not a criticism of your post, which I agree wirh completely.

He was fired by the Sioux in a hostile takeover!
