Again: Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
One place where I have to grant that Obama acted brilliantly, was to make Clinton the SoS.
If he had wanted to, he could have brought her down. It is only because they made up that she walks free today.
Laz, I don’t think Obama was following your model.
He just didn’t have much choice in the matter. SoS was what the Clintons demanded, as they already had the pay to play model perfected through the Clinton Foundation, and her at SoS would enhance that model greater than they could even imagine.
He protects her even now because only she and Bill can destroy him. Mutual Assured Destruction, like in the Cold War.
And they all know it.
Kasich is a gnat to Trump now, and should be treated accordingly. Treacherous people must be dealt with decisively, like Trump did with Ted.
