Everyone I know working in government right now is having the same dilemma: leave, or stay & prevent vacuum from filling up with T stans.

But if a vacuum forms, it'll be filled with people with less competence. History has shown this time and again.

When that happens, our government becomes more ineffective. With the IC in particular, that means our country is MORE vulnerable to threats.
-
This will happen sooner rather than later. This means that holding out hope for 2018 midterms isn't enough.
-
Weakening our IC basically opens the door for foreign influence. Remember, the IC doesn't just catch spooks and study troop movements...
-
but it also monitors business deals and economies and trends. Now, imagine an IC incapable of monitoring foreign business influence.

Does that sound kind of like what Trumputin wants? Yes, yes it does.

I can see a world where in 18 months the US is the most powerful satellite state in the world.

it's not just govt employees that will have problems. The private firms will have the same issues before long.

POTUS himself has potential to compromise IC staff, possibly accidentally/indirectly. Dangerous for those who stay
