    What happened is that a lot of competent folks who worked with Trump before don’t want to work with him anymore. So he is left scraping for the bottom of the barrel to appoint as government officials.

      That’s not exactly true. The statement is true to a point, sure. The part you didn’t say is that he doesn’t want to work with them either. He wants loyalty before competence.

      Hence his DoD pick. No qualifications except loyalty. So when he wants to turn the American military on the American people, there will be no objection.
