It’s the big problem Trump needs to solve for 2024.
How can he get a cabinet that is loyal to America and effective?
Everyone inside the system is loyal to the system not to the country.
Anyone coming from outside doesn’t know how Washington works and can be rolled by the bureaucracy.
How can he get a cabinet that is loyal to America and effective?
That is my biggest issue with President Trump's candidacy. It is not fair, and stinks to high heaven, but we also need to think about the country's best interests.
Even President Trump's biggest supporters agree that he will need some exemplary people around him. Where will they come from? Who, whom he - and we - can trust, will agree to step up to the plate?
Good description of situation in DC.
That’s a good synopsis of the situation.
Another aspect of this dilemma is the fact that this massive unaccountable bureaucracy is largely an Executive Branch problem, yet the other two Branches do not let the President deal with it.
A President’s key appointments - within his own Executive Branch - must be confirmed by the Legislative Branch - thus crippling his authority to hold his own administration accountable!
This cannot possibly be what the Founders intended for the Separation of Powers doctrine embodied in the Constitution.
Yet, if a President challenges an overreaching Legislature, the Judicial Branch steps in to arbitrate and almost invariably sides with the Legislature.
Somehow, by electing better Senators, or appointing better SC Justices, or SOMETHING - we need to restore the proper balance of power between the three Branches, so that a President elected to drain his own swamp has the power to do so.
