Its terrible when they want a reason why they should do something I want them do. How can I the unelected minion get what I want when I have to work for someone like this.
Even if it is presented more mildly in context, I hardly see it as a shortcoming. Sure, someone that doesn't just go along with whatever people are saying makes one's job difficult but it can lead to better outcomes.
Perhaps some would want to work with Trump and Vance instead so that every brief will have to be in the form of a picture book?
Don't forget to include article clippings praising Trump too.
Lest anybody think this is a joke. It's not. Trump's staffers literally had to shorten his briefs and fill them with pictures and positive article clippings telling him how awesome he is.
A mindless mind will find a way to take a neutral or positive trait and find a way to spin it into a negative narrative, or in the case of the current journalism industrial complex and its' mindless little drones who fancy themselves "the fourth estate" - something alarming, shrill and hysterical, something to amplify high blood pressure.
To be clear, that's annoying from a figurehead position like veep to some. Being the perfect veep doesn't really qualify you to be president.
And yet, here we are.
Yeah I'm not really excusing the Post so much as excusing the staff for complaining. If they get a directive from the West Wing, they're just out to jump and not ask why.
What makes you bad at being VP can make you good at being president.
