Smart man, I was struck by his statement that he doesn’t know the party affiliation of the other board members, he was there to serve our country and not a party.
Countries can be destroyed by dissent from within. (That’s scary, I fear that’s happening to our country right now. 😢

We need so many more like him who think of country first, but Trump has divided this country like never before, people are "taking sides" and regarding anyone not on their team as the enemy. And it is very scary since even without Trump, the damage is done and our elected officials are firmly divided along party lines as well as ordinary Americans.
