re: #299 dangerman

Trump brought in cronies with zero policy experience. He values loyalty to him over all else, including competency to do the job he’s intended for them to do.

So, between picking extremists who are intent on destroying the very departments they’re running and incompetents who are allowing agencies to falter and fail because they just don’t know what they’re doing, he’s got the government in a tailspin.

And his admin is a shitshow of rivalries who are intent on showing how loyal they are to Trump by throwing everyone else under the bus by claiming they aren’t sufficiently loyal to him.

It’s a cancerous and toxic environment, and Trump thinks that all this is normal, because this is how he runs his businesses (into the ground and has seem them become so highly leveraged that he’s compromised by all the money he owes to foreign countries and banks).
