These incompetent a-holes Trumpty Dumpty is appointing.
All noise, no signal. They can and will be his obedient monkeys. But what do they know about people management, team building and running the massively complex government agencies they’re heading?
Self-interested narcissists with gigantic egos who know how to run their mouths off, are notoriously bad at running organizations involving other humans.
They can say “Yeah, boss, right away boss…” all they want, doesn’t matter. IMHO.
@TheAbbotTrithemius thats the point give them a feeling for power then when the time comes to say "hey I need another 4/8yrs" all they yes men/women will back trump 1000%
Its "how to become a dictator" 101 and trump knows how to play
Yes, I do believe Turdmp has been studying, Putin, Orban, Jong Un, Erdogan, Duerte, Bibi and you even hear some things he says that can attributed to some of them (the "Killing drug dealers" thing is from Duerte for example).
And this nepotistic gifting of his loyal minions to juicy appointments is right out of that book for sure.
If they're confirmed, I doubt any of this first wave of idiots lasts through 2025 before he cans them.
Just saying I'm hopeful of their incompetence.
@TheAbbotTrithemius read something about the "confirmed" thingy that happens that kinda suggested most won't even need confirmed - as in that part isn't gonna happen for a lot they'll just "get the job" on Trumps say-so(tried to find the post I done but can't lol)
But found something J said
"Trump assigns 'acting' positions for 2 reasons...
a). to avoid senate confirmation.
b). to keep the position 'subservient'."
😆
@TheAbbotTrithemius yeah that was the point the person writing was making mainly 👍
I'll give that a read thanx its something I know little to nothing about really, for US politicians
@ecksmc
Yes, absolutely on both those points.
He can get around the confirmation process through what are know as 'recess appointments', which allow a President to make temporary appointments when the Senate has adjourned so important roles can be filled quickly when the Senate is on a break.
This article is a good explanation. Other administrations (GWB for example) have used and abused the circumvention to ram through appointments.
