In Gotti's book, he said he was sure to an extent that the chin as smart as he was, must have known how good it was to have his father around... to deflect attention away from him since law enforcement were so busy going after his father

BUT as we all know, the chin was doing quite the opposite trying to get Vic & Gas to whack Gotti

That was smart since he wasn't personally involved and could distance himself (from retaliation & law enforcement) but if he was really that smart

Chin would have wished for 10 John Gotti's. Didn't take a genius to work out that once Gotti was out the picture, next up for bat was the chin himself...he was the only old timer & big fish left...

His quest for vengeance and hatred did his family no favours
