I keep reading articles & news posts about how the Trump Administration is doing a bad job of communicating its policies & governance. This presupposes two things:
- That the Trump Administration has objectively and holistically comprehensible policies and governance strategies
- That they have the desire to communicate them clearly to the public via the media
I think the press is still doing a bad job at understanding what’s going on here. The easiest way to #DrainTheSwamp is through neglect. Shut down whatever you can, fill key positions with administrators who will further hamstring the bureaucracy, and leave the rest to dry rot.
This is the kind of state/regulatory capture you learn about in an introductory public administration course.
