I think there’s not enough attention paid to the most important aspect of our presidential choices; who they select to be in their administration. Biden has solid people who put their heads down and get to work. Trump chooses loyal charlatans who preen and spew bile on Fox News, while they seek to destroy their departments because they don’t believe in the administrative state. Those administrative selections are extremely important, maybe more so than the chief. And Biden is more trustworthy than Trump, X1,000.
Yes, I remember people saying (wishcasting, as Charlie likes to say) that Trump would surround himself with the best people. Best people for getting themselves convicted in a court of law, I’ll grant you that.
Thank you. Biden has put together a spectacular administration. Anthony Blinken, Janet Yellen, Secretary Pete. People who seem genuinely interested in using their talents to serve their country.
This is an important and not very often mentioned point: who the leader chooses as his/her worker bees is really important. I will never forget when I was complaining about the problems I was having with an elected official from my state because of some of his real shortcomings. My brother, who had done work with elected officials from his state, asked me about my interactions with the people who ran his department and I had to say that they were all efficient and helpful. He said that who a person hired to carry out his work was an important thing to consider when evaluating a leader.
