Current Events > You know, truthfully, I don't think Trump is all that bad. Just the people he's

(+) Yeah! (+)

chosen to align himself with are. Trump on his own though isn't that bad. He's pretty likable in his ridiculousness outside of some forced religious pandering. Like how the bible is his favorite book when he's had a half dozen wives and mistresses. Who is he fooling?

He's just chosen to surround himself with this nest of vipers who want terrible things. Just look at Betsy Devos. She's actively making education worse and making it easier for student loan companies to fuck you over. Out of all the people he could have picked for that position, he picked her. Whhhhhhy?

I think his problem is that he favors whoever is nicest to him. That's all it takes. That's the only explaination I can think of for how some of the people ended up in the positions they're in.

I mean, he seems to have picked people pretty deliberately with respect to their wish to dismantle the thing they are in charge of. Too much of a coincidence.

He did manage to fool a bunch of impoverished rednecks that a NYC billionaire understands and cares about them so I'll give him that

Trump actually surrounded himself with some competent people, too. But they preach the voice of rationality and logic and analysis and he doesn't like that, which is literally why the White House had to have a job fair to find people because no one wants to work there.

Trump is an absolute idiot.
