My two big gripes about Trump and his administration, 1) he rarely hired the right people who share his vision and, 2) he was not nearly aggressive enough to rip out, root and branch, all the insubordinate, subversive government lackeys.

Can you say ‘Unions’? How about EOE rules. It’s next to impossible to lose a Fed job - unless you don’t follow the piper. This overpaid/underworked/overentitled idiot will probably be a dept head soon - if this gender neutral noun isn’t one already.

“Trump rarely hired the right people.”

Depends on the reason he hired them. Depends on what he had to choose from

What’s your timeline?

People are always whining about how trump did things wrong

He’s the president of a country run by corrupticrats. Won a second term by a lot. By a landslide. By a lot more votes than his first election. With the government, the media against himHas a few great and non corruptible people on his team.

Speaking for myself I give him a lot of leeway. I’m going to watch what happens next.

Ah, no one here took it seriously.

1) he rarely hired the right people who share his vision

A. You can't hire people who don't want the job. I think now we understand why a person already in a succesful career wouldn't want to give that up to face the arrows that would come their way.

B. Basically Mitch told Trump that anyone not on his approved list would be DOA in the Senate.

I thought that too but then remembered he is not and insider but got recommendations from people we know now are the deep state

Too bad YOU didn't get elected because YOU would have done all the right things despite 99.9% of the government being against YOU.

YOU are just that great!

I certainly understand your first gripe, but I will cut PDJT some slack. Remember that when he ran and won, he was not a politician, thus he had no tight circle of people in government who shared his vision. So he tended to pick Republican ‘swamp people’ perhaps assuming they would be better than democrat swamp people. In this, he was wrong, but I don’t know how he could have avoided it.

well... I agree somewhat.. but there are few... VERY FEW... VERY VERY FEW... to trust. Look at today how many jumped ship. And for the firing... he was going to do that in the 2nd 4 years. they were after him relentlessly before..

and after this week.. he will have taken care of that problem... and those in the capitol know it... they are desperate to get rid of him.. but he is safe somewhere and cleaning up this nation... it’s worse than any of us knew.
