He was manipulating presumably vice admiral level officers in Marineford when Croc was first defeated (showing his disregard for possible reprecussions in the Marine HQ); then in the war he showed how much he took pleasure in the chaos by laughing and using a nonchalant fighting style; furthermore, the higher ups of the WG enlisted him to eliminate his fellow warlord Moria, who was no means a pushover Shichibukai himself, after which, upon failing in his task, he stood in the main office and calmly stated that at anytime he could do whatever he pleased regardless of what title he held.
Idk how much you argued, but simply seeing these brief appearances, Doflamingo is easily number 2 behind Mihawk, which I believe you of all people, halaros, will agree with.
On a side note, it is much less entertaining to belittle you ,cross, when you aren't here to battle back lol
