The problem is that the American public elected a reality television show host who can barely string a coherent sentence together as president. Since expertise, honesty, and competence represent direct threats to the administration (e.g., decorated military whistleblowers, career foreign service workers, etc.), the administration has steadily removed such people from critical positions in an attempt to stifle internal resistance to its behavior. A side effect of this type of purging is that we now have a reduced capacity to respond to complex geopolitical and natural threats. Hopefully the hard reality of a pandemic shakes some folks out of the propaganda bubble before too much damage is done. |
