    I would argue that the most important duty of an American president is to appoint competent people. But Trump cannot tolerate competent people because he looks unbelievably bad next to them. Remember how stupid he looked at his debate against Harris?

    So, Trump surrounds himself with people who are similarly incompetent as he is. If they’re crooks, they’re like him, incompetent crooks.

      Don’t forget that they are also unbelievably good at fellating him (possibly literally in some cases, but not in public yet). I saw footage of a recent cabinet meeting, and even by North Korean standards it was fucking cringe.

      At this rate, I seriously would not be surprised to see them deliver all this ridiculous praise of Taco on their knees, just before getting down to business…
