Trump Kicks Down the Guardrails
Trump is trying appoint people who will put their loyalty to him above their loyalty to the Constitution and the law.
Trump wants people who will obey his orders, even if that harms America.
.
Here is a quote from Ezra Klein:
“What we’re seeing here is that in the areas of government where Trump cares most about full control — the military, the intelligence services, the Department of Justice — he is trying to do what he could not do last time: He is trying to put true lackeys and loyalists in charge. People who have no loyalty aside from their loyalty to him.”
