I agree with your agreement.
Why would anyone listen to a back-stabbing lard ass?
Krispy Kreme, STFU. Nobody likes you or wants to hear from you.
ESAD doughnut boy.
Subtle! Nice!
Have another donut, Chris.
Trump is not a Politician.
He is a businessman trying to fix a broken USA.
*** One of the reasons the Trump administration got off to a rocky start was Christie didn’t do his job.***
Like most politicians, Christie doesn’t actually DO squat. He’s more accustomed to ordering people around to do his work for him. Oh, and also accustomed to eating lots of donuts.
Republicans job was to sabotage Trump. From Day One.
Like Trump said at the recent rally; I had two jobs, running the country and surviving the onslaught of corrupt attacks from the Media/Dems/RINOS...and running the country was the easiest part.
And still is their Number One job to this day.
The LARGEST Rino......
The headline, “Chris Christie Says Trump Needs To Stop Living In The Past” needs to be fixed. It should say what really needs to happen.
***Republican Elites Need To Stop Living In The Past***
What’s going on with CC these days? Hasn’t he learned by now to keep his big yap SHUT! Nobody cares about his opinion of Trump.
“Christie did manage to get his BFF Christopher Wray in charge of the FBI to undermine Trump.”
Interesting that happened after the transition. Trump had originally planned to keep Comey as head of the FBI and only fired him after the treachery became public. By the time Trump accepted Christie’s advice to hire appoint Christopher Wray, Christie’s incompetence, leaks to the press, and backstabbing should have already been apparent to Trump.
The personnel failures of Donald Trump were many and they eventually contributed to his fall. Leaders of large organizations depend on having competent and loyal people to carry out their plans. An organization cannot “win” if the executives and department heads are actively working against the leader. For this reason many corporate CEO’s immediately clean house when taking on a new CEO assignment and bring in people they know have the skills to get the job done and will be loyal to the CEO. The same thing happens when one company acquires another. The company doing the acquisition quickly moves to replace the management team of the old company.
Trump, as a successful business executive, should have known from experience the importance of having outstanding executives who were loyal to him in key roles. As POTUS he spent four years struggling with this issue and never succeeded getting people in place he could rely on. McConnell and the GOP Senate may have been part of problem, but Trump had the ability to go over the Senate’s head and take his case for a key appointment to the people. He never did. Trump also continued to take advice from people like Christie and Lindsay Graham who constantly worked against him.
Perhaps the most telling evidence of Trump’s inability to discern, recruit and deploy talent was his choice of Michael Cohen as his personal attorney. That decision was made long before Trump ran for president. Cohen was a corrupt and flawed attorney yet Trump hired him as a personal confident. If Trump couldn’t recruit, vet, and hire a top notch attorney for his personal business, why would he be able to find and hire outstanding a loyal people for his White House Chief of staff (Priebus and Kelly) and cabinet secretaries?
Another 100% Trump appointment that leads me to question Trump’s hiring ability was Anthony Scaramucci. McConnell and the Washington establishment had nothing to do with that appointment. He was a high profile disaster and Trump had to fire him quickly. Not unlike Ms. Omarossa who Trump brought to the White House from his own organization.
After four years as president, I saw little evidence Trump improved his hiring skills. Should he run again, the success of his administration will depend on the capabilities and loyalties of the 2000 appointments he makes to the federal bureaucracy. If he is unable to find, hire, and deploy better people than he did during the first term, should he win a second term he will fail. One man cannot win by himself when leading a large, complex organization. He has to have loyal people fighting in the trenches everyday against the entrenched bureaucracy.
Bad Politician ?????
That’s why we love him !!
Get a clue Mr. Donut - WE HATE POLITICIANS !
You are correct in your analysis, but getting good people in place for as complex an organization as the Executive branch of the US government is why we have parties. Trump had to run an election against stiff odds. He should have had a Republican Party feeding him candidates, but that didn’t happen. It was the opposite. Trump has some time to do the personnel job now, if he runs again.
As a past owner and president of my own business I know how difficult it is to get good people. I’ve made a lot of mistakes myself.
