I don’t think it’s good reasoning to say “loyal to Trump, therefore must be dumb or cruel”Trump's only criteria to qualify for these posts is that the people he appoints to these posts are loyal to him.
Therefore you will see that anyone he appoints to these posts will generally either be dumb or cruel.
It is those kind of people that will ally themselves with someone like Trump.
You’re basically saying,
One’s loyalties entails a transference of traits to oneself from the person receiving loyalty. E.g. A is loyal B, B is dumb, so by extension A is dumb too.
Appointments to government should not be chosen by considering loyalties
Why would either of those two statements be true or obvious? They’re super contentious. Maybe you can shore them up more.
I can see reasons why he chose these people tbh, it’s not hard to fathom
…but ya they are definitely provocative choices lmao, that’s what is just hilarious
