Trump Prepares to Hire New Crop of Scapegoats

Oliver Willis: 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. ... Trump's chaos had very real effects on ordinary Americans. He mishandled the COVID-19 outbreak and hundreds of thousands died. During his time in office, more jobs were lost than under any president in decades. He doesn't hire the best people and even the ones he does put in power don't stay there for long, because he's very bad at this.

Yep... this time when he tells the DOJ to do something illegal, like send a Letter to States saying it's legal to created Electors other than the ones that represent the way the People voted...

... his minions will see who can yell out the loudest, "Jawohl, mein Fuhrer!!".

("Yes indeed, my leader")

How long will it take for Epstein's wingman to top his 15% unemployment rate?

Not scapegoats. Fascist traitors.

Last time trump was surrounded by a few sane republicans.

Now we're going to see him surrounded purely by crooks and sociopaths.

I do find it amusing as I surf around the podcast and pundit world how many institutionalists think that republican congress and the courts and the administrative state will restrain him.

It is hilarious the lack of imagination these people have.

Project 2025 is lined up ready and raring to go

------- will be going around security checks to get his preferred people in place.

------- will start with a whirlwind of onerous actions on January 20, 2025

He will ignore any court order he dislikes

He will sic the military on domestic protests

He will send the DoJ after his political rivals

He will simply ignore congress if they refuse to sit his preferred nominees

This is all as obvious as the sun in a clear summer sky
