if this guy was a scumbag all his life. He seemed like a dedicated, well-informed, public servant with good intentions on the outside. Even amidst his first indictment(s?) back in the aughts. But I do recall him withholding support for the Iran nuclear deal. It occurred to me that it could have been his way of getting even against the Obama Admin.
