His primary problem is age. He is an old man who sees a lifetime of work slipping away. He sees the close of the New Deal Era....... he sees death.
He is powerless to reverse the trend but strikes out with vitriol and anger. We can best wish for apoplexy..... a stroke will silence him.
A tad harsh, don't you think?
I wish for him the same that I wish for all my alcoholic patients: that he realize he's hit rock bottom (not that he'd be allowed by his handlers to truly reach it) so that he turns his life over to a Higher Power.
