Hiring the right people

I thought a basic problem with the GW Bush administration was its inability to hire good people. Now, we have a worse manager in Trump. He fires people quickly; there have been four different heads of the Department of Homeland Security, three in charge of the Department of Defense, two at the EPA, two at State. The interior secretary has been under investigation by the department’s inspector general since his first day on the job. All in three years!

Then, we have Barr, Pompeo and Mulvaney who think their job is defending Trump. And Carson who doesn't know that in the HUD world the word REO refers to foreclosed properties, not Oreo cookies.

Does Trump even know the names of his cabinet members? This past week he tweeted of the defense secretary Mark Esperanto, who is really Mark Esper.
