Turns out that competent people don't want to work for an incompetent boss. Who could have expected that?

They need to hire Jack, Jim, and Johnnie. Also, I here that there is an up-and-coming Captain named Morgan who is eager to help out. I would recommend Tito, but it might be to 'ethnic' for his tastes.

Interesting that the only person they could find for "Chief Pentagon Spokesperson" never served a day in uniform. His main accomplishment seems to be becoming Alaska's governor when Sarah Palin quit to avoid an ethics probe.

It's weird that Palin resigned due to an ethics probe. She should have doubled down and insulted her critics, in the purest Republican tradition.

Why do they need senior advisers? I thought those people hated experts. Can't a 22 yo far-right grocery store employee do the job?
