Trump Has Quietly Installed Hundreds of Officials Across the Government

While President Trump has not moved to fill many jobs that require Senate confirmation, he has quietly installed hundreds of officials to serve as his eyes and ears at every major federal agency, from the Pentagon to the Department of Interior.

The KGB was all over the hotels in which I stayed in Moscow and Leningrad in 1985. A couple were easily bought off with USD lol !!!

I know I know.,Stalin was dead by then , but you get the picture....

Another example of why the primitives don't need listened to, when it comes to the President.

No matter what he does, the primitives are going to bitch and moan anyway; such a constant automatic monotonous never-changing knee-jerk reaction isn't really constructive criticism, and so should be brushed aside.

If the primitives want to count, want to matter, they first have to stop and examine their motives.

Exactly. Above a certain level of seniority it's a ritual for the officials to submit letters of resignation after every Presidential election, including those where the incumbent won. The newly elected President then has the flexibility to choose people (s)he knows will carry out their policies. But because Trump did it and G. W. Bush did it, it was sinister and possibly illegal, while when Clinton and Obama did it that was normal.

What the appropriately self-named "Lint Head" ignorantly or dishonestly failed to mention is that Trump's appointments needing Senate confirmation are not lagging for lack of action on Trump's part, but the lag is due to Ds' obstructive slow-walking of the approvals process.

The proglodytes have unilaterally decreed, under the authority they have granted themselves, Trump is not worthy of those powers and privileges.

Because reasons.
