Not a lot of regret expressed there.
Praetorian Guard is a reasonably accurate description for his former organisation's activities; administration, special forces and covert intel ops directed from a higher level than the bread-and-butter army.

I'll give you right wing. I've no idea what level his ties t o Bush were, but I believe he still got work under Obama.
The company, founded by secretive right-wing Christian supremacist Erik Prince, pictured above, had deep ties to the Bush Administration and served as a sort of neoconservative Praetorian Guard for a borderless war launched in the immediate aftermath of 9/11.
Yeah, I think we can pretty much discard that link.
