    This is a really good case for sabotaging the retrofit. Slow it wwwwaaaaaayyyyy doooowwwnnn, and do all the merely cosmetic tacky gilt stuff first. Once he retires, the protective shielding and communications and weaponry won’t be necessary anymore. And he won’t care, as long as it looks lavish enough.

    Also I think we really need to start using “retires” rather than “leaves office.” Or “goes private” if it seems like he doesn’t want to feel old enough for retirement. We have to make it seem like something he’d want. If we really made it appealing he’d quit early, because he’s sure the fuck not doing this job for the sake of the nation.
