Because choosing folks to head up the most important Federal departments and agencies should be decided first by loyalty to the President.

Swampiest swamp ever.

I think the simplest way to explain the disaster of the Trump presidency is that you have a narcissist whose success in business was predicated on personal loyalty.

Rachel Maddow explains why Trump fired Sessions and replaced him with a loyalist.
