## Tactical Playbook
- Leverage his relentless persistence and political lobbying acumen, but actively channel his 'siege mentality' toward external competitors rather than allowing it to manifest as internal paranoia or partnership disputes.
- Mitigate his zero-sum approach to credit and equity by enforcing strict, transparent, and preemptive IP frameworks; without hard boundaries, he will attempt to legally subordinate and marginalize key collaborators.
- Surround him with deep technical specialists who are comfortable relinquishing public credit, allowing him to function as the visionary orchestrator and political liaison where his operational strengths truly lie.
