Insightful yet frightening.

Donald Trump got elected in 2016 -- this is news? He's been surrounded by incompetent Yes Men for ages; the smart ones left, often rapidly.

His first term he was surrounded by extremely competent and serious people, especially early on. Yes, they got whittled away over time, but they were still a major mitigating factor on his stupidity.

Mattis, Tillerson, Barr, Acosta, Azar, Pompeo, Kelly, Mnuchin are all (surprisingly) god-tier thinkers compared to the current clown car.
