You'd have to be one hell of a bad manager to chew through so many staffers in 3-1/2 years.
That is the understatement of the decade.

In reality he does not manage. ......he is far too disorganized in his head to organize a staff for effective and cohesive governing. He just "wings it....... as is so evident. The problem is that even winging it can work if you are constant.......he isn't consistent at all. You never know from day today.......what drama he will create .....just for "effect" and theater. He is a phony.......leader He is not even smart enough to have others do the work effectively..........as he can't /won't keep a stable staff. His narcissism is so severe he cannot tolerate ANYONE taking the attention away form him. We are talking mental disorder.

Bolton is a big personality...... and that was competition for Donald.........which he won't tolerate. He is very aggressive and forceful. and a threat to Donald.

I've actually worked in an environment like that controlled by a narcissistic bully like Trump. I left, for a time and finally returned to help re-build the company after he was finally run out of town on a rail. Not only did he leave behind shady deals under every rock, suppliers right, left and center refused to do business with us and it took considerable effort to re-build relationships all around.

The US will have to face re-building friendships and alliances too, after Trump is gone. That's the source of a lot of US power.

What you describe is precisely the dynamic that is going on in the white house. The relationships severed by choice or by accident WILL require repair.........but might take some time. Trust is hard to reestablish when lost.

Not sure many in the US have figured out what is going on and just how bad Donald is.......or how he is destroying ..There seem tobe a certain myopia there.

The Chinese ... perhaps, the Russians must be daily considering the weakness that they are facing from American leadership. It is an historic opportunity for them..

EXACTLY!!!! Trump is exposing all the US warts ;and vulnerabilities. You can imagine what Putin REALLY thinks of Donald...........and it is not what Donald thinks it is.

One of the toxic side effects of narcissism is not being able to distinguish what's REALLY going on beyond one's constant need for affirmation.

Your constant harassment of those who oppose Trump just shows that it is you who look stupid. Give it a rest old man. You make Putz look like a Rhodes scholar.

You are fully entitled to your own opinion but you should remember that's ALL it is - another opinion! :)
