A "mugwump" is a person who is a member of an organization or political party who agrees with the general "constitution" of the organization, but takes exception to those who violate that "constitution" for their own benefit. Roger definitely was an independent spirit.

Way back when, a politician was called a "Mugwump" when he could not be pinned down regarding his opinion on any certain political matter. It was said his "Mug" was on one side of the fence and his "Wump" was on the other

I didn't know Roger but will honor him by carrying on.

Yes, Roger was a mugwump. That's why we didn't hear much from him. He knew where his friends were.
