Trump inspires no loyalty. The highest ranks leave.

Trumps off-stated desire is that people who work for him are loyal to him.

yet he is loyal to no one.

and stands on no principle. He is chaos.

and those that work for him are reminded of this every day.

and get out when the getting out is as good as it will get.

and this will not end, but be a hallmark of his presidency.

and the low quality of his staff will get even worse. The best conservatives refused to work for him at the outset. Only the desperate will apply.

They'll lie for him for awhile, but they're drawing the line at going to jail for him.

Back during the campaign, it just seemed strange that
this supposed successful CEO hadn't garnered any close
friends or truly loyal lieutenants over all those years.
