Trump Dumps the Nerds: Loyalty > Larping, Says Insiders
Sources whisper that the Orange Man is stacking his court with folks who won't stab him in the back, which libs predictably melt down over.
Okay, so the WaPo's pantyhose are twisted again. This time they're clutching their pearls over reports that Trump is prioritizing loyalty over 'policy expertise' in his inner circle. Translation: he's finally realized that swamp creatures with PhDs are more likely to leak to CNN than actually MAGA.
Let's be real. 'Policy expertise' is often just code for 'leftist agenda masked in jargon.' These so-called experts spend more time crafting convoluted regulations that strangle businesses than actually solving problems. Trump figured this out a while back – draining the swamp means getting rid of the eggheads who think they're smarter than everyone else.
The Left, predictably, is losing its mind. They're screaming about 'evidence-based decision-making' and 'threats to democracy.' As if their decisions are ever based on actual evidence. Please. It's always about feelings, virtue signaling, and lining the pockets of their cronies.
Trump understands something these pointy-headed academics don't: politics is about power. And power comes from trust. You need people around you who have your back, who won't sell you out the second the media starts sniffing around. He found out the hard way that resumes don't guarantee loyalty.
Think about it. How many 'experts' did Obama surround himself with? And what did they accomplish? Obamacare? A disaster. The Iran Deal? An international embarrassment. Sometimes, common sense and a gut feeling are more valuable than a dozen Ivy League degrees. 'Trust the plan,' as the boomers like to say.
And let's not forget the Deep State. These unelected bureaucrats are the real power brokers in Washington. They're the ones who slow-walk Trump's agenda, leak damaging information to the press, and generally try to undermine his presidency from within. Having loyalists in key positions is the only way to fight back against these shadowy forces.
So, yeah, Trump wants people around him who will tell him what he wants to hear. So what? Every president does. At least he's not pretending to be some kind of objective, enlightened leader. He's a brawler, a disruptor, and he needs people who are willing to fight alongside him. Time to OWN THE LIBS.
Besides, who needs 'policy expertise' when you have Twitter? Trump can communicate directly with the American people, bypassing the media gatekeepers and the out-of-touch elites. That's real power. That's what scares them. He may be a bit boomer-brained when it comes to the internet, but he knows how to get his message across, and that's what matters.
So, to all the Never Trumpers and virtue signaling academics out there, here's a message: cope harder. The MAGA train is still rolling, and it's not slowing down for anyone. The new criteria? Does anyone remember the time he actually WON? Get rekt. Based.
The sheer pearl-clutching from the left is enough of a signal that this is the right course of action, like a contrarian investor spotting a buy low opportunity. The more they squeal, the more we know this is the way.
In the end, it all comes down to survival. Trump, ever the strategist, is simply fortifying his position against the coming onslaught. He needs soldiers, not scholars, and anyone who doesn't understand that is simply not paying attention. Buckle up, buttercups.
