As best as I can see, your problem is not with Trump, but with the party. Any time a POTUS steps into the harness, he, and some day she, faces this problem. Our representatives that go to those halls are in it for themselves and the people that put them there, the voters. So you’ve got at least a couple of hundred different needs in the purse strings and bills. And with the element of levels of commitment in the party it would be almost impossible to get a clean one way or another. And of course the POTUS has his idea of his commitment.
To be honest I feel one of the reasons Trump was so successful in his first term was that he was not part of the politicial scene so he had no real threats from the swamp. And what they did go after was outside of the political arena. Many positions held under the POTUS’s control are civilian slots. So why not put civilians in them rather than the, so call, experts that are provided to him.
I laughed at a part of the movie Dave when he brought his personal accountant into the white house to correct a need for money and the accountant recommended the erasing of programs that didn’t make sense or were not needed. I’m not laughing anymore. Sooo, why not fill the positions he can with people he trusts from his knowledge and not the people provided by those that have an agenda? A perfect place to start would be the DOJ and/or NSA. Then it would become apparent that skit rolls down hill or laterally. If they want to keep their jobs, then they have to work with people that actually have a position and want to work it. But that is why you hire the POTUS to make those decisions. Trump has been successful by doing exactly this process. I would like to see him make us successful.

Correct. My problem IS with the party.
It’s not a loyal opposition, it’s the right wing of the bird the left wing is attached to.
One big club, all slopping at the same trough. Take down one, and that one can kill the entire bird. Never gonna happen.
