Trump putting incompetent people in was the biggest black mark against his term (Barr, Bolton, many others). Hardly yes men - his own picks undermined him at every opportunity.
Biden himself (& Hunter) got millions upon millions from China and you ignore it.
Right, i will reformulate and it will be even worse:
I will tell you; we have 2 kinds of politicians who will grab;
- Few, like a secondary pay, house or cars. Not much more. Advantages. Because they are small players. Educated. These will keep most of the standards like competences in teams and respecting the whole establishment (and global policies).
- Fortunes, like in banana republics or Russia: these will steal or divert up to billions or more, in giant corruption schemes, while often severly endangering or destroying the status/reputation of their country in the process. Even pushing for authoritarianism. Nominating radicals or yes-men, incompetents.
I am not even sure that Biden is even in the first category. It's only his son. If I didn't have the choice i would pick the first one, and you ?
