"You're fired!" Trump to replace White House Counsel before he's even started his term.

He appears to be putting as much thought and energy into this Presidency as he did into the last.

And we know from experience that during his first term, virtually all of his time was spent playing golf, watching television, eating and sleeping. He does not like to work, and he certainly doesn't like sweating the details on anything, so I doubt any of his picks involved more than 5 minutes of thought.

It's not like he hasn't had the job before, though. So why is he making rookie mistakes?

Trump was narcissistic and prone to overconfidence before pulling off one of the greatest political comebacks in American history. If he wasn't hardwired in that way then, he most certainly is now.

I don't disagree with you... it's just hard for me to envision that as anything but a recipe for disaster.

NatMorton said:

If it's not a disaster, his inability to build and maintain a cohesive team will mean his second term will be less than what it otherwise could have been.

His first term was a disaster... the second promises to be even worse.

"CNN —
President-elect Donald Trump said Wednesday he has picked David Warrington to serve as his White House counsel and that Bill McGinley, whom Trump had previously tapped for the role, will instead serve as counsel to the Department of Government Efficiency.

The move was seen by some in Trump’s orbit as the result of an effort to push McGinley, someone with whom Trump was not deeply familiar, out of the key role. McGinley initially got the nod after top Trump aide Boris Epshteyn pushed him for the job and got him across the finish line, multiple sources told CNN at the time. Epshteyn, who CNN recently reported was the subject of an internal investigation into allegations that he sought to gain financially from his influence with Trump and others in his orbit, had helped fill a number of legal roles within the administration."
