Eh, I think that his 2nd term kind of helps validate that view of his 1st. Because he was a political newbie, he allowed those around him to help make staffing decisions, so you got mostly run of the mill Republicans. Terrible, certainly, but not sycophants. That’s all out the window this time. Key positions are filled based solely on either fealty to the mad king or ✨campaign contributions✨ (bribes). Anyone who dares speak out gets the axe, and at least for now it’s a metaphorical one.
Second term has been so much worse than the first in that regard. I was just telling my co worker the other day that it’s funny how Trump’s first term, and especially his first year, was just him firing tons of people that he appointed, and in his second term he’s hardly fired anybody. It really sends the signal just how much Trump has surrounded himself with sycophants, yes-men, and puffers this time around.
I think that’s part of the reason why the moron feels emboldened to say and do some truthfully horrifying shit.
