Which makes him much more dangerous.

He's a naturalized citizen and therefore can't run for president. There's that, anyway.

I'm talking about the corporobot, of course.

I don't follow him at all & only discovered today he's had several spaceships blow up.

It could be Husk's most prized invention that turns on him late in the third act

Melon: How could I not? Don't you see how cool it looks? And environmentally friendly too!
Godzilla: ROAR! CHOMP!
