think i saw a Timothy Snyder quote that said something to the effect to not expect actually qualified people to be the faces of the shitstain’s cabinet because that's the whole point: they are all against anybody qualified, they are the anti-qualification government.
what's worse: they not only are against anything being functional, but they really do not want to destroy the state. as white collar criminals, they seek to plunder it and privatize it, especially the violence.
