    I mean I don’t know much about what he was able to do in that role, but I imagine there are others who can step into his position and do a killer job. What he may care more about at the moment is ensuring that someone sane can continue making decisions about who goes into positions like the one he’s leaving.

      Not much point in hanging onto an assignment that will evaporate with the next administration… especially if you think your talents and skills are better utilized elsewhere.
