Trump is running a transition that’s a master class in how to normalize corruption, immorality, and narcissism. Forget a team of rivals. He wants a team of outlaws just like him. My new piece at @thebulwark.bsky.social www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-cabi...
Trump’s Putting Together a Team of Outlaws
It’s a cabinet in his image: narcissistic, corrupt, and dangerous to America.
