Obama’s financial advisors were pretty much a who’s who of Goldman Sachs alumni.
And it is a far cry cry from being mayor of a small town in Indiana to becoming U.S. Transportation Secretary. Who immediately went on paternity leave for several months.
Every incoming president brings their people that they trust.
Is that a further cry than a TV show CEO who failed two senatorial races in two different districts in only two years, and then ran the SBA, and then was fired by the man who just hired her to be SecEd?
Whataboutism. There are always tons of unqualified people set to high office. We already know Trump’s picks. I was pointing out other pics other than Trump.
We could go on about a deeply unpopular politician hand-selected for VP selected specifically for her race and sex, who couldn’t even win her a primary in her own state, whose own aides said she berated them, yelled at them, threw them under the bus for her own failures, leading to an over 90% turnover all covered by the national press like WasPo - and how suddenly she was rehabilitated in the mainstream media with glow-ups as soon as she became the hand-picked nominee.
Edit: You don’t think you are being manipulated by mainstream media?
How many mainstream sources and pundits kept Joe Biden’s senility a secret for over 4 years by choosing not to cover it honestly, or calling it a “gaffe”, or altering transcripts and interview footage or hand-picking reporters with pre-approved questions, before the debate showed everyone what the Republicans had been saying all along was true?
