I disagree. Trump may have been recruited years ago by the military or whomever to be president to save the nation, but Trump is 100% his own man and is not going to be a puppet even for the military. Therefore it is completely reasonable for me to believe that once in office and having to make decisions on personnel he got fed some bad advice from RINO's and made some less than perfect choices. Nevermind the pool of talent is lacking as well. There just aren't that many people to work in these positions who are qualified and also MAGA...
Yeah I agree. I wonder if the Military has full access the way the CIA does or Mossad. Probably but in a different way. I suspect it is compartmentalized in ways we might not even know.
I get that there is some of the white hat part but Trump definitely is an alpha and will "pick his guys". That has to be why the military would even choose him in the first place knowing he loves America.
His picks" =/= who the Senate chooses to hire or not hire.
Presidents only have the authority to pick and hire their personal staff.
That's how people like Bannon and Flynn were able to work with him in the WH. They were part of his personal staff so the Senate couldn't refuse to hire them
Then that is something Trump should have been working to change or at least making an issue. The President should have the right to hire and fire who he wants except for when it comes to national security. There does need to be limits.
I think the senior executive service should be eliminated or pared down dramatically as that is where the lifer deep state live.

Pretty sure the military would have had intel to the nth degree on all of his picks. The people had to be shown just how deep the swamp was.

Trump has stated Christie is the one who whispered he should put Wray in.
Trump also briefly considered Christie for VP
Christie would be a big hit at the Easter Egg roll...
"There are not that many people to work in those positions who' are qualified" AND who the SENATE would agree to hire.
ONLY the SENATE can HIRE or refuse to hire the Presidents admistration, including his cabinet aka his Department Heads.
The Senate refused to even give initial jobs interviews to some people President Trump wanted in his administration.
Anyone MAGA or seen as a threat to the DC Deep State would NOT be hired by the Senate.
