There was a universal delusion among the pundit class in ‘16 that Trump would follow Dubya and St. Ronnie in filling his cabinet with career politicians/diplomats/etc who would dampen any damage he did to America’s standing by translating his brain droppings into “reasonable” policy. Even Congressional Republicans were willing to go along with the crazier of his appointees because he grabbed up men like Jefferson Beauregard to fill out the seats.

It never seemed to occur to any of them, despite all the warnings to the contrary, that Donny was enough of a wannabe dictator that he would start firing appointees that didn’t do as he wanted and cowed the rest into being his willing accomplices.
