Trump's circle of sycophants and yes-men


There will always be sycophants and yes-men, and they do get work in many fields like sales,entertainment etc. But when it comes to politics it becomes extremly dangerous, Hitler became super delusional towards the end of WW2, he would not listen to any generals or advisors and look how that turned out.

Have you never seen The Apprentice? The last thing Trump would ever do is surround himself with those sorts of people. He prefers them with backbones and not afraid to speak their minds.

reply

The Apprentice is a show, all shows are made up even "reality tv".

So is most politics.

Thanks for the Godwin.😑

There is so much wrong with your post. Hitler seldom listened to anyone pretty much throughout his whole life. Hitler was delusional before he took power. Many politicians in the US subscribe to using yes men and I would submit that Hillary Clinton does for sure. The exodus away from Trump's circle of advisers would suggest a fair number of his supporters are not yes men.

reply

Yes that exodus is a good sign... Also, Trump's "yes squad" consists of his kids. That's why he brought them along to the White House and handed them a bunch of nepotism positions they aren't qualified for.

he has no long-term friends or advisors, in two years he's on his 3rd NSA, 2d AG, 2d SoS, 2d SoD, 15th CoS....

the guy listens to no one, can't stand anyone - no one with any self-respect can longer endure working for the ignorant tyrant. this much is clear.

those that have lasted longest - Conway, Sanders (also leaving if she can get anyone to hire her), Pompeo, are complete yes-men.

here's a cabinet meeting riddled with mainly fired cabinet heads, judge for yourself as to his penchant for slavish devotion :

What laws has The Pres put into place that makes him comparable to Hitler?

What has he done to be labled a tyrant?

Im not looking to argue, just looking for facts :)
