The best story of the week was from a guy who is supremely capable. And likeable. Secretary of State Marco Rubio.  It's how he gets some shuteye while Energizer Bunny Trump keeps everybody working.

"There's an office with two couches, and I usually want to sleep on one of those two couches," he told New York Magazine's Ben Terris about Air Force One Flights. "But what I do is I cocoon myself in a blanket. I cover my head. I look like a mummy.

 "And I do that because I know that at some point on the flight, he's going to emerge from the cabin and start prowling the hallways to see who is awake. I want him to think it's a staffer who fell asleep. I don't want him to see his Secretary of State sleeping on a couch and think, 'Oh. This guy is weak.'"

I love Secretary Marco! But unfortunately, I think he just blew his Mummy Cover.

Hamg tough.
