Donald Trump has not yet filled his government, but the evidence indicates that he is looking for two main features in his choices: loyalty to him and his hatred of what he calls the “deep state”. on Washington Week with the Atlantic OceanThe committee members discussed the reason for a division of thinking about these candidates and their qualifications.
This week, Donald Trump was appointed, among other things, Robert F. Kennedy Junior, a vaccine denial for the presidency of health and humanitarian services; Getz, the subject of the federal investigation of sex crimes, as a general lawyer; Tulsi Gabbard, defender of Vladimir Putin, as director of national intelligence.
Although Trump’s nominations have left some in Washington with a shock, the potential cabinet members should not be a surprise, as explained to me Ann Kaldawil last night. She said that his choices are exactly what the elected president promised at the campaign’s path: “We have to re -direct the mentality of what is normal, and what happened for decades in Washington within the handrails of traditions and the law.” “Trump is trying to throw all of this, and he does this by nominating the people who will do exactly what he says.”
In addition to his pursuit of loyalty, Trump also promised that he would hollow many federal agencies. Mark Leipovic said last night: Especially because many Trump candidates have never run huge agencies before, “It will make the chaos integrated when this administration will try to do more than that.”
