This is yet another example of why it was so difficult for President Trump to choose people for his administration. The deep state is powerful, and numerous. Just like Johnson, many of the people Trump considered had solid records, only to turn on him the first chance they got. Just as Johnson turned on America the first chance he got.
Money, power, extortion, blackmail and other assorted crooked politics have ruined US. There is only one way out until the cycle repeats. It will inevitably repeat. Man is naturally corruptable and corrupt.
+100; you nailed it. People criticized Trump for hiring bad people but I don’t think anyone realized how corrupt and deep the swamp really was.
