The long view, patient, analytical, playing several moves ahead.

“Right. I mean, look, I think I grew up, as mentioned earlier in the podcast in Rhode Island. I sat back and wondered in awe who could possibly work in the White House and how would that ever happen? And so it's not lost on me how humbling and honoring this is to have this opportunity.”
“I think you got to go forward with the things you campaigned on. I mean, look, just to get back, to be clear, when you look at where President Obama leaves office versus where he comes from, the Democrats have lost over 900 seats at the local, state, and federal level.”
“It's very hard to rebuild trust. I'm not putting it on you. No, no, but I agree. I think where the tweak that I would have in what you're saying is I think it's one thing to. Discredit or undermine their intent. I think that the Veterans Administration, for the most part, truly cares. I mean, a lot of the staff there are veterans.”
“So there's two aspects of intelligence. One is the raw data, which is what a lot of the analysts spend their time doing, where they go in and they're looking at... Human intelligence, other intelligence aspects that are picked up, and they're providing that straight up. It's raw data. This is what these people are doing.”
