Trump prepares to hire a new round of people he'll inevitably turn on

Donald Trump is preparing to hire a new round of people to help him run the country. With Trump’s track record of never-ending chaos and disorder, they may want to keep their resumes handy.

Trump is reportedly considering a team of loyalists, the people who will tell him he’s never wrong when he suggests policies like injecting bleach to fight off COVID-19 and launching nuclear weapons at hurricanes.

Among the names in circulation are former ambassador and social media troll Richard Grenell heading the State Department; apostrophe investigator Rep. Elise Stefanik as U.N. ambassador; Taliban meeting coordinator Mike Pompeo as secretary of defense; and anti-vaccine crackpot Robert F. Kennedy Jr. running the Department of Health.

When Trump last held the presidency, his top team was in near-constant rotation, because they either ran into Trump’s ego and he let them go or they quit in disgust. According to the Brookings Institution, during his time in office there was a 92% turnover of senior level Trump officials over his four years.

That has been clear since his early days and his absurd performances on his reality show. This is person who got his start in business with multiple millions from his father. Trump's businesses were based on debt and fraud. He ran ridiculous casinos and tacky hotels into the ground and declared bankruptcy multiple times. He is a "fake businessman". He has always been incompetent, going from one failure to another. The only thing he has been good at is selling his BS to other stupid people and getting loans to support his fake businesses. He is a con man and a grifter and never should have been anywhere near the White House from the beginning. He is an incompetent manager. You would have to be foolish, stupid, or desperate to want to work for him.
