Serious policies call for serious appointments

I don't follow US politics now I have left Twitter, but I see some, and that Trump has been appointing unsuitable people to various important posts.

I don't doubt that those appointed intend to do very serious things, mostly cruel, heartless and unchristian things. But as we saw with 14 years of failed COnservative Governments here in the UK, turning campaign promises into actual action is hard.

Sacking hundreds of thousands of public sector workers in order to slash $2trillion from the budget without caring of the consequence, is not serious policy or appointment.

Appointing someone with no military experience to head the Pentagon is not serious.

Many of the policies will fail, even if lessons have been learned from Trump's first stint.

Maybe failure is the aim, so that wokeness and unpatriotic State Department workers can be blamed. The US version of The Blob.

Trump is an unserious politician. Cruel, heartless and a sociapath who has addmitted wants chaos.

Countries get the GOvernments they deserve, the US voted for this. Hope they enjoy the ride.
