    If a faction of the GOP wants to staff the national security apparatus with people who share its worldview, it needs to train a pipeline of people who are prepared to take those jobs & qualified to do them.https://twitter.com/MZHemingway/status/1197634003593056266 …

    Easily Trump's biggest failure has been the horrifically bad job he's done with personnel. Personnel is policy. Almost a miracle there haven't been more efforts such as this Ukraine one. A lot of contributors to the personnel failure, but ultimately his responsibility. https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1197615125735395329 …

        THIS. Also note that foreign policy is far from the only issue portfolio where MAGA was woefully short on qualified staff to implement their agenda. Maybe dank memes aren’t enough?

        If not share its world view, at least serve the administration in power honestly and honorably and not work to undermine it when they disagree, then gaslight us that the administration is the one running a shadow government. Don't deflect from their wrongdoing as Trump's fault.

        She is missing the obvious point that nobody wants to work for him because he is mercurial and disloyal and even if they do the right thing they’re unlikely to escape with an intact reputation

        There is not a lack of Republicans or conservatives that have appropriate background to serve in national security. Unscrupulous, bootlicking toadies willing to suck up to Trump, well, there might not be many qualified people in that group.

        So much for the assumption the bureaucracy is full of non-political patriotic personnel.

        Once again it’s not Trump’s corruption. It’s his poor choice in choosing people who don’t endorse his corruption.

        Remember Schumer's advice to Trump: essentially the spooks will get you if you cross them. Training people to fit into this paradigm is a hopeless task, but I have no idea how you put the genie back in the bottle.

        MAGA doesn't really give a shit about Foreign Policy which is why so many of them aren't qualified for FP jobs. They're stuck with Bush alum if they want Republicans.
