        The dude got his first star before TNCR existed and was a four star in 2007. How young would you expect him to be today?

        Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.

          I always thought he could've made a good presidential candidate.

            He's a champion social climber, among other attributes. This is not a guy who got by solely on his military strategic acumen.

            Education is extremely important.

                And like pretty much every other general and military leader that ever walked the Earth, he has an Alpha male personality.

                  I do have reasons for saying what I said. Or rather impressions. He targeted in a romantic way certain people who paved the way.

                    I have no reason to doubt that. He’s just as flawed in his own manner as you and I and everyone else.

                      I used to be a social climber, but I fell off and broke my leg.

                      I was only joking
