    That’s pretty much the entire Trump administration’s defining qualification: No intention to do the actual work, just to not let anyone else do it.

      “Government doesn’t work. Put me in and I’ll prove it.”

      Obviously means they want to get paid to do nothing. But idiots never put that together.

      Bruh, it’s everywhere in the government right now…

      Edit:

      Do people just think “the government” is politicians?

      It’s federal civil servants, and that’s who should have RFK jr’s job.

      trumps shit leadership, led to federal employees everywhere not giving a fuck.

          RFK Jr is in what’s supposed to be a non partisan position as a government employee.

          I was highlighting how his behavior and work ethic is widespread across the entire government right now.

          Not everything is as fucking lazy as:

          My team good, that team bad

          The fact that “teams” are relevant at all when talking about federal civilian employees is asine and shows you have no fucking idea what you’re talking about.

          Like, did you think Fauci was a Democrat?

          Did you just fall that hard for Republican propaganda you think this is how shit is supposed to work?

            All you’re doing with the “both sides” bullshit is bag holding for the nazis. Step back, realize you are part of the problem, and try again.

            Did you think Faucci was a Democrat?

            I didn’t care because he was in a non-partisan position. So long as he followed science, his personal politics didn’t matter. But that isn’t what Republicans do now.

              Is talking about the millions of federal civillian employees…

              I’m sorry I can’t communicate this in a way you can understand, but I’m sure as shit done trying.

                We all understand that the nonpartisan rank-and-file follow the cues of the partisan political appointees at the top. I’m not sure why you’re trying to downplay the fact that this erosion in behavior and work ethic is a direct result of the party in charge.

                I understand what you’re saying just fine. It’s just a stupid point. Who hires those civil servants, and creates the requirements and expectations of those same jobs? The party in power. Who do you think vets people in order to get someone that is “aligned” with the mission of overthrowing the current government? The party in power. Who is firing people that don’t toe the line within their agencies? The party in power.

                I’m sure as shit done trying

                When did you try the first time?
