Maybe to the general public. To some though, those who know that Rudy and Trump are not just colleagues but long term close friends, it sounds like someone who gives a friend honest feedback that is in their best interests. Something more like "Rudy, I am going to work my Secretary of State like a dog, he will be all over the planet for weeks on end. I'm worried about your health in that situation. You're too important to me personally and for the country to risk on that. I'd rather have you near me, where you can advise me and help manage the team, and stay healthy. Can you accept that?"
Sounds good. By the way, the rest of are switching to Coke.
