He comes every year to West Point (our shared alma mater) and gives a speech. Afterwards he spent about 2 hours just talking with cadets. Really sincere, not rushed, asked me about myself. Maybe it was a feeling of kinship but he was a genuine guy from what I could see.
Is he a bit off a yewt in other ways? I’m sure. You have to be in some aspects to be as successful as he’s been. But he’s definitely aging at this point.
