    1. Fresh Sebastian Gorka scandal (possible membership of Nazi affiliated group) is good example of Trump administration's personnel problem

        3. Any presidential administration has to hire thousands to enact policy. There's an entire Washington infrastructure for that

        Well, what else do you expect when you go out of your way to hire bigots, racists, anti-intellectuals, and cartoon supervillains?

        I suspect #Gorka may be part of the Russia problem in some way...
