The Trump Presidency 2.0

[Topkick]

I'm in it for the species ladies and gentlemen. And right now, this doesn't help the direction of our country.

Otherwise Swalwell wouldn't be in office right now.

I just want better people to help us go the right direction.

I'm am disappointed in the performance of so many of his picks.

Every political party does it, Republicans are not the sole purveyors of that. Ever look at the Dem or Libertarian groups? Dems are either wanting more radical and no peace or they'll be soon eating each other. With the L's you have lolberts wanting everyone to be a lolbert or the bibs with knife and forks come out to play.

Edit: we're actually guilty of playing the short game with the Dems in it for the long game. That's an arguably real thing going on.

The Democrats don't, they're united AF. They don't care if one of their dudes was hanging out with Epstein, they close ranks. They have shown a united front for years. And what have Republicans done? Infighting for 10+ years.

I don't know what game the Republicans are playing, but whatever it is, they're going to lose in the mid-terms because they splinter on every issue and have gotten little done.

Tear each other down? Nah, lets just agree that Trump puts his sycophants in high places whether they are the right person for the job or not. I voted for Trump three times, but I dont suck his dick. His administration is filled with people who do.

All of Biden's choices were super qualified, right?

I didn't vote for Biden.

No worries here, I won't vote Democrat. I just think Republicans can do better.

I think the president got bit in the ass so many times by so many people in his last administration, his main screening criteria is loyalty.

It would be better if it weren't that way, but I get it.

I get it and support the concept. I genuinely do.

Where I can find fault is watching folks like Bondi and Patel who clearly need to go but they are kept around. You can stack the deck with your people, but you can't be afraid to move on if they don't perform. Put another way, successful military units and businesses aren't afraid to fire underperformers or people not meeting certain standards. I think quite a few of us take issue not with the hires, but the lack of firing when it is apparent that person isn't getting the job done.

The Army has failed to fire unsuccessful leaders all the time. We saw in the last administration that there was no need to fire anyone, they performed so poorly, or maybe that was by design. Democrats seem intent on destroying our country. So when Trump does replace someone it's because he's got at least half a brain and is not pleased with the current person's performance.

But when he names a replacement, we just start tearing them down instead of being in lockstep, we have no unity within the movement let alone the party. Which means we'll likely get at least 4 years of Kamala or Newsom.

I'll be the first to admit that I was fired up listening to Bondi, Patel, and Bongino screaming "Murica" until I wasn't.

It's okay to disagree with some or all of a POTUS's decisions or lack thereof. Sometimes we all forget this.
