Really, I don't understand why Trump didn't do that early on. It's obvious that leaving all those Obama appointees in place is what led to so many problems. Mind boggling.
Trump is from the private sector. When you buy out a company, you don't fire everyone in it, you just mold their vision into yours. Problem is, these people aren't there to serve, they're there to implement an agenda.
This. So many people don't understand. He's from a business background, not a political one. Even when a businessman buys a new business, he keeps on people with knowledge to keep the ship running as smoothly as possible til he finds out who the faulty cogs are. Jumping over to a completely different type of "business" (politics) required the same, if not more so! We saw him implement this strategy throughout his term.
If anything, Joe's tactics show that he's less interested in serving the people and more interested in serving his party and himself. We don't need that. The hardest part for Trump was realizing how vastly outnumbered he was in trying to serve the people.
Trump made a Ceasar like mistake of after conquering your enemies, you just make them pledge loyalty and let them go. From his business mind he saw everything as a transaction of he scratches their back and they scratch his he didnt realize these are DC dork fanatics who would crash the boat they are on for ideology.
Thats why he made all sorts of concessions to the left and was amazed that they still hated him. Like his prison reform stuff early on, he did that because he thought it would make them let off of him.
I think Trump had the pulse of what became the MAGA movement and understood what we wanted but the was out of his depth being an outsider and never really understood leftists and how vicious they are.
It guaranteed that he wasn’t a corrupt piece of crap, but it also caused him to lack experience when dealing with politics.
I think Senator Hawley should be our next attempt. He knows how to play politics and believes in Trump’s ideology. He also has a personality that is more “acceptable” to middle America.
Because he came in with ZERO prior knowledge on how to organize a bureaucratic megalith. He naively thought he could leverage the institutional knowledge of those already in-place. One of several fatal strategic errors that lead us here. A known-risk when electing an outsider.

All trumps problems can be summed up in one phrase:
He trusted the wrong people because of his political inexperience.
Yeah. Trump was definitely naive in this respect. Well, a lot of things.
Trump was far too trusting. He thought people like Pence and Preibus were patriots and he took their advice on who to hire and who to keep.
He was dead wrong.
Reagan’s mistake was trusting the Democrats.
Trump’s mistake was trusting the Republicans.

Not only crash the boat... murder everyone on the boat first, then crash it, then burn the wreckage

Him being an outsider was a double edged sword.
It guaranteed that he wasn’t a corrupt piece of crap, but it also caused him to lack experience when dealing with politics.

Limbaugh even said he was surprised Trump didn't know this and had to tell him.
