      1. Good for Harward. This is a question I've changed my mind on: whether good people should work for Trump.https://twitter.com/WSJ/status/832426644749086722 …

      2. I used to think that decent competent people should work for Trump if they can, so they could mitigate his worst tendencies.

      3. But three weeks in,it's clear that subordinates not in position to mitigate or block Trump. They can only enable him.

          Does that mean he should have rejected job regardless of staffing and if answering only to Trump?

          Not only enable him, but be tainted by associating with him.

          the only reason is to report/leak on the worst actions. No one should have to do that..

          4. Congressional GOP enabling Trump but no reason for national security experts to do so. Make message clear: this is unacceptable.

          5. Anyone offered NSC job should say, "I'll take it only if Bannon is gone or sidelined." Otherwise job is not worth it.

          Not as long as Bannon has T's ear, I would guess. Peel Bannon, maybe Miller away, and rational people have a shot, maybe?

          May be difference between those in WH and those heading departments. Mattis still seems (comparative) voice of sanity.
