You can almost (but not quite) forgive the first time. You could -maybe- write it off as an experiment, or that they were giving the ‘real politicians’ a scare to get them back in line.
However that’s a lot of ‘almost’ and ‘maybe’.
I didn’t vote for him, but I expected his first term to be appoiting halfway competent people to run everything so he could fuck around and take the credit. I doubt I was alone.
He is incredibly lazy, but he’s also incredibly vain and thin-skinned. Halfway competent people don’t suck up to him enough, so he was never going to be interested in appointing them. It was always obvious he was going to prefer incompetent but fawning.

Why would you expect that?
Because I thought he was lazy.
