    They did. But open corruption is not appealing to any except the most devout Trump supporter.

    The other factor is that they fired anyone competent.

      they fired anyone competent.

      Who do you think did that, Trump himself? Or Peter Thiel who funded the campaign, and is right now setting up the worlds most extensive surveillance/execution system?

        Peter Thiel, who is obsessed with the antichrist and completely convinced that it’s all real, and also somehow Greta Thunberg.

        Yes, the mass surveillance is a major issue, but without competency behind it, it’s less dangerous. More destructive, but less dangerous if that makes sense, because it’s easier to break things than build things.

            Scrambling, and largely failing. The current chatbots are a long way from Markov chains, but that’s still the very basics of how they work.
