Summary
Donald Trump’s appointment of John Phelan, a private investment firm chairman with no military experience, as Secretary of the Navy has sparked backlash from some of his supporters on Truth Social.
Many pro-Trump users, including veterans, criticized the pick as rewarding a donor or friend instead of selecting someone with Navy experience.
Some expressed feelings of betrayal, accusing Trump of abandoning their values and making decisions that harm the nation.
The move has raised questions about qualifications and loyalty among his base.
Almost everyone he appointed is a shady political insider or a rich guy. He’s draining the swamp water so he can fill the hole with nuclear waste.
Though usually they appoint them to ambassador to a ally like France or England or somewhere else cushy with minimal political impact.
And to the donvict cultists, what they call a “swamp” is actually a set of people that are experts and/or long-term public servants - something they’ve been trained to bray is a “bad” thing - calling them “elitists” (a perversion of the term) and yelling about “term limits”… instead, they’d apparently rather have a bunch of “outsiders”, which means - incompetent grifters and/or enemy agents looking to weaken this country for the benefit of the likes of Putin.
