"On the campaign trail in 2016, candidate Trump often reassured voters that he intended to hire only the best and most serious people top-of-the-line professionals, if you will. Even his most devoted supporters must look back on that particular vow with amusement. Trump's first term saw him cycle through four full-time chiefs of staff (yes, you count, Mick Mulvaney), national security advisers, and press secretaries among numerous other major staff shakeups."
"To date, the second Trump administration has been devoid of the kind of attrition the first fell victim to. But it's been defined by just as much incompetence. The screw-ups are too many to enumerate in full Mike Waltz's Signal chat, Elon Musk's DOGE disaster, Pam Bondi's year-long fanning of the Epstein flame, and Susie Wiles's Vanity Fair tell-all stand out but recent events in Minnesota have taken Trump's presidency to the brink."
Donald Trump promised to hire top, serious professionals but failed to do so, producing high turnover in his first term. The second administration avoided similar attrition yet displayed comparable incompetence through numerous high-profile miscues. Notable failures include Mike Waltz's Signal chat, Elon Musk's DOGE episode, Pam Bondi's prolonged Epstein-related attention, and Susie Wiles's Vanity Fair revelations. A Minnesota deployment of immigration enforcement resources after a Somali fraud scandal rapidly deteriorated, resulting in two American citizens shot and killed by authorities and implicating senior officials such as Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller, and Border Patrol commander Greg Bovino.
