I mean, I watched a reality TV/gameshow host run the executive branch for 4 years, culminating in a press conference at The Four Seasons Landscaping. I don't know who expects competence from the federal government anymore, but it isn't me.
- all2 4y agoI'm in the same boat as you, but for very different reasons. I have close to zero trust in the abilities or goodwill of Federal entities.
- thewildginger 4y agoThe thing about something like this is that there are always individuals who will seek gain from classified access for themselves. The US has a singular focus on financial gain, but mental evaluation needs to be a more clear part to this. The problem is "clout" seekers are all over the military. Have a conversation with a person in a highly selective field in the military and you'll find a crazy high amount of capable narcissists and God complex egos to go around. This is why I'm saying to a degree this isn't a surprise to people in the IC.
