5. Oh yeah, he's smarter than people here think, even
Those who know him often claim he's the smartest person they know. He can talk about a wide variety of subjects with a strong degree of authority.

I don't know why you think he's sweating now, or worried. He's neither. He's in control. The memo story is old news, and on the off chance that he gets indicted by the investigation, he's no doubt got plans to handle that.

If we want him beat, we've got to beat him.

As for him being an opportunist, of course he is, but that doesn't mean he's not a master strategist, too.

If it weren't for his amorality, he'd be an impressive person. His biggest intellectual weakness, though, seems to be that after a point he stops processing information, so he never changes his mind or admits he's wrong. That could create a hubris we could play on, but so far we haven't been able to.
