He seems the front man naif of the bunch. Doesn't even know his neck is stuck out or what the circus is really all about. At least, that is the impression. I sense that same kind of goodwill floundering among other officials(health, safety, labor)trying to cope with the bells and whistles details of fear and not the causes or the exploiters of the game.

Body bags, medals, organized hand holding. Soldiers of the Empire operating under the pretext of prevention.

For any person of real thought or values or practical experience the whole sorry show rises like bile in the throat.
