Exactly. It's not so much that there will be all kinds of flips, I think it will be more the case that he tries to use those potential flips to gain leverage.
We shall see how successful he is.
And agreed on the first point.
But to the no black-balling of GMs anymore, I don't agree with that. What's his face down in ARI comes immediately to mind.
