You'd think no other administration in history had people leave and others hired. They are a hoot! How about naming one administration that has had this number of high-level departures in the first year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commencing pre- inauguration. These people are under extreme pressure listening to you guys whine and lie. Can you blame anyone for jumping overboard? What BS. People are jumping because this is a sinking ship. And all that "pressure" you speak of originates with Trump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a mule. They don't leak and a mule with a broke leg will do more work than a tractor .........That is what my Grandfather said anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That it's called to mention now only illustrates how desperate the Left has become to find any straw to cling to in order to keep from drowning.

Be that as it may, Trump is very experienced at firing people that aren't performing as expected and replacing them until he has the correct mix. As long as he keeps reversing one or more of Obama's anti-American rulings weekly, he can fire/hire as many as he wants. Is that somehow a problem for you?

NolaAuTiger 3,295 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 12 hours ago, homersapien said: Yeah right. And trade wars are good too. We're talking about Trump's character, not how successful he's been in swindling others and then marketing his fame for doing so. Character is always a matter of opinion; when many opinions agree on a person's trait of character and are openly expressed, the person may gain a reputation for that trait. I attribute to President Trump a favorable character, in this context, in light of a reasonable considerations of overall business ventures - not just a select few where he filed Chapter 11 or where others taking risk lost money (which of itself leads to extremely dubious assumptions). You, on the other hand, are handicapped by your disdain for his Presidency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are resigning. And he's not keeping up with hiring replacements. But the really scary thing is that he is now operating more and more out of his preferred environment, with people he is close to, people he knows and trusts, at least to the extent he trusts anyone. He's out of his element. I predict he will become more erratic - or "unprectable" as he calls it - especially as the Mueller investigation progresses. I just hope he doesn't start a diversionary war.

Those that buy into what he's selling - for whatever reasons - and think he's actually doing a good job a president. Those who see him as the narcissistic huckster he is - for whatever reasons - and think he's hopelessly unqualified in almost every way to hold this office. Given that dichotomy, I am pretty sure you are fall in the first category and I fall the the second. Who is being most "handicapped" by their perspective remains to be seen. Time will tell.

Oh no, I will give him credit for his business successes, as long as they were accomplished with ethically / morally. Obviously the strategic switch he made from building things to licensing his "brand" - while further boosting that "brand" with a successful reality show worked out very well. But when you have a history of failures that ultimately lead you to operate with laundered money (for example) you aren't a good businessman. You are a good promotor. A huckster. But it is kind of fascination to watch it happen. I just hope we get through it quickly. It may take years to recover from the loss of professionals at EPA (for example).
