“Institutionalist” is the most common description used to describe Kash. He’s one of those “99% of the FBI is good”, we just need to let them do their jobs, types.
While he (regrettably, IMHO) lacks private enterprise experience, that isn't as essential in LE as economic positions.
Most agents are probably "white hats" but any organization needs white hat leadership more than anything. The tendency to conform to the norm is just too great.
I still like and respect him, but some tasks are just impossible.
Oddly, web searches reveal that “FBI director” is the most common description of Kash Patel.
At least for those who prefer reality to illusion.
