The point being: he’s an obstacle at the final stage of approval. The fact it got that far and fell apart in this deal…yeah. It wouldn’t surprise me let me put it that way.

I thought you might mean Gaudreau, but that was a curveball by Gaudreau and Edwards came in to try and salvage it.
The others don't seem like curveballs to me. More chain of command issues which couldn't possibly be involved over weeks.
