    The W Bush administration put a 24-year old—barely out of school with no finance experience—in charge of “rebuilding” Iraq’s stock market when we were occupying Iraq and legally responsible for the well-being of its citizens. “Foreign” policy is eventually domestic policy.https://twitter.com/crewcrew/status/952533967906975744 …

    How did Taylor Weyeneth, a 24-year-old w/accuracy issues surrounding his resume, end up as deputy CoS of the Office of Nat'l Drug Control Policy? His only professional experience after college & before becoming an appointee was working on Trump’s campaign. https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/meet-the-24-year-old-trump-campaign-worker-appointed-to-help-lead-the-governments-drug-policy-office/2018/01/13/abdada34-f64e-11e7-91af-31ac729add94_story.html?utm_term=.adcd7d9bc345 …

        There were so many examples like that during that occupation. Daughter of a prominent neocon with no accounting background and no relevant education whatsoever got put in charge of Iraq’s then $13 billion budget.

        Makes sense, but I also think 'everyone with experience told me my ideas were dumb' plays a factor, too.

        Republicans today run the USA the same way they did Afghanistan & Iraq. This is not an administration: this is an occupation.
