    The problem for Pruitt is that Trump doesn’t like to expend capital defending anyone else’s scandals. (Trump is perfectly fine with fighting it out when he’s the one creating a mess for others to fix.)

        They are all horrible picks for top positions in this administration. What happened to picking the best people and extreme vetting?!

        This is an infuriating aspect of this admin-- Pruitt has for years, probably rightly, thought that the EPA needed to be reined in. Now he finally gets in the exact position to do something about it, & he's going to lose his job bc he couldnt stop himself from binging on perks

        He's, no matter what, probably out in 3-4 years, making 5x his EPA salary, but he couldnt just make the small sacrifices of flying coach and living in DC full time and paying normal rates for rent?? ffs

        Not entirely true. He was happy to expend capital for a pedophile in alabama

        Pruitt is like all of other incompetent cabinet officials who were chosen. None of them basically were qualified. Yet the reasons for firing are also out of bounds and more for cosmetics/“loyalty” than (lack of) qualifications. Sorta like the whole presidency so far.

        "A" problem would be a more accurate description. But then again if the only issue is keeping your job I guess you are right, it would be "the" problem.🙃

        This is not unique to Trump, just magnified.
