Press Secretary had shortest stint EVER

I'm sure you've all heard of the late Katie Zacharia. She's not dead, just fired after a horrific 5 days. The administration of meritocracy has a neptobaby as president, an alcoholic in Defense, the offspring in various positions and God knows who else. 

If I were even a fraction as horrible at my job as the current administration has been with every project they've taken on, I'd have been fired and blacklisted by now. 

From the tiniest of crap like cleaning up a pool to tanking the global economy with illegal tarrics and a war, it's like they chose the worst possible outcome in each instance. 

It's not even a republican vs. Democrat debate at this point. There has been  competent Republicans in the past. I didn't agree with their views for the most part, but at least they weren't actively destroying institution in which they serve.

Icing on the cake has got to be the now allied ties with brutal dictators like with Russia 90-min call and flipping on the sanctions stance. 

For those in the US... Am I missing anything or this administration in the pocket of Russia and Israel? It's hard to find any other modern president or administration that has been so detrimental to the US and so beneficial to their supposed adversaries.
