Is it better that he has smart people who want to do their job well or dumb people whose biggest selling point is professed loyalty and they look good on TV

A dumb man with a brick can still fuck up your teeth.
& there's a new group ready to replace the previous group
(as if none of that ever happened).
Life IS strange.
Remember when he said he knew the best people before he chose his cabinet for his first term?
I love that his biggest criticism of Biden was that he doesn't fire anyone. Firing someone means you failed to pick the right candidate. Biden didn't fire anyone because he made good choices. Trump always has to fire people because he has no judgement of character. He just goes with whoever compliments him in that moment.
as a non american in America I've come to find that's an American egregore: that firing people means you're a good leader.
Also as a non-American who lived in America, you are spot on. American management culture seems to pride itself in childish power plays. Firing problem employees instead of working with them to resolve issues was becoming less acceptable, but it's still the primary method of handling issues for some industries.
Nope, you are confusing Dumps reality TV show with actual reality. I guess it does get a little confusing as his whole presidency seems to be a parody. People who voted for him truly are some of the stupidest human beings to ever exist.
I've heard it as a criticism of Peter Thiel and others, and, as a manager edging towards director, I get asked about it in interviews too
They don't ask you about the edging direction? I'm assuming you don't eventually cum on the director. So down your pants or do you want until you get home?
In real life firing means you made the wrong pick and is not looked upon as a good thing unless you are a sociopath. I suppose if you came into a company to clean house some would view it as correct but they are probably shareholders who have perverse incentives.
Long story short, Americans don't generally like bosses and don't approve of firings unless it is obvious the choice was correct, for instance firing someone who is toxic.
Having had to fire someone as a director myself I would think it strange to be brought up in an interview and probably a red flag.
Personally, I agree with you. However last several organizations I've been in have had a "we trial you to see if you're an A-player, and if not we next you" attitude
I am sorry that you have to deal with people like that. It sounds like their organizations are dysfunctional.
I think there are a couple of people who could return... He's still on ok terms with Roger Stone and the guy who just got out of prison, right?
Roger will never have an official position. But he'll get paid big bucks for ratfucking.
and he killed his first choice for DOJ head: Jeffrey Epstein.
We haven't heard about Ivanka and Jared yet.
I was hoping the Never Trumpers, those scorned by Trump, and the Democrats could come together and say "We can't let Trump or anyone like him happen again."
But that would have made sense...
Feel like that on you for still having had hope
Guys not gonna lie I feel scared. I am not even American. I'm scared for all of you
I don't feel an ounce of pleasure in saying: this administration will make things worse for the whole world.
I'm super scared for women
53% of white women voted trump
According to Trump, it's 53% of women past menopause.
This was always how it was gonna end. A century of warmongering and terrorizing the rest of the world is coming home to roost.
What's also crazy is that there are people lining up saying "Surely that won't also happen to me."
His fallout with RFK JR and Musk is gonna be epic.
I still haven't decided if making Leon and Vivek Co leads of DOGE is a dig at Leon or Vivek. I'm sure Leon thinks he's the "real" lead.
Oh yeah it's to make them fight. This is how the people who make Trump's decisions think is the way to run a government.
I never thought the leopards would eat MY face
"Those people were losers. I am very smart so it won't happen to me"
They are playing a different game.
They are not swimming with sharks but are the scavengers that get the leftovers.
actually the people coming back know that he demands loyalty. they might have to sell part of their soul to be loyal, but they know that up front and are committed to doing it.
