I understand Trump’s consciousness. Not news to anyone. But what about the people around him? Has no one been begging, demanding that he use his power over the last few weeks? Is their obsession with not disturbing private industry so great that they’re willing to let people die?

The answer is: Yes. #Trump surrounds himself with like-minded sooth-sayers who lift his ego with adulation. #Trump values loyalty & adoration before all else. Anyone otherwise gets purged out resulting in great turnover.
