Nope. Not this administration at all.

Trump 1 was a very different administration.

And Trump himself has publicly backed off what was probably his one major achievement after receiving pushback from his supporters.

No, he really isn’t.

Trump one had a sane (terrible, but sane) cabinet that largely controlled his wilder impulses.

This time he went for loyalty above all else.

This is absurdly revisionist. The first administration’s cabinet/staff was a reality show and a merry go round of people like Anthony Scaramucci and Ryan Zinke. If anything “controlled” it, it was just the chaos of incompetence.

As far as loyalty goes, I suppose it’s worth reminding you that Kennedy was a Democrat, who ran in the Democratic presidential primary, and routinely criticized Trump.

OP is saying Trump has demanded loyalty as a condition of serving in his administration. As HHS Secretary, RFK caved on Roundup, something he famously won a case against as a lawyer[1]. That even lost RFK support from some of his MAHA fans.

Relatively speaking Trump 1.0 had a sane cabinet. Yes, there were some crazies, sure, but relative to the people he has around him now, they seem sane.

Where’s the Kelly and Mattis in the second term?

Kennedy was a Democrat as a spoiler.
