Sorry but Trump never managed to get control of the Department of Justice or key Federal agencies such as the NSA,FBI or CIA. He never made effective, loyal senior appointments. That failure undermined his Presidency even more than the MSM and the vile Democrats.

Should have fired all the holdovers, like Hussein and Bubba did.

-2- Kept liberals, like Val Jar , far away.

I agree. He was naive into how deep the left was in leadership and rank and file government

I hope he gets a second shot. He won't be fooled again

Trump was going to get betrayed by the DOJ, FBI, and CIA, and the GOP leadership no matter what he did. McConnell and Graham had to approve Trump's appointments. He could not appoint whoever he wanted and get rubber stamped Republican approval.

IIRC Judicial Watch found out that many of the FISA warrants from 2012 to 2016 did not meet legal standards. Mueller was the head of the FBI from 2001 to 2013, so the FISA abuse began with him. Then he gets to be special counsel to investigate Trump for being illegally investigated? There is no way that the top of the GOP in congress was blind to what the FBI was doing for the last 20 years.

Many, myself included, thought the GOP leadership was just bad about backing Trump. The reality is, they were complicit with taking Trump down as long as it did not hurt them politically.

Don't blame Trump, blame the GOP leadership that was happen let this happen to him.
