To paraphrase Reagan: "I'm from the government and I'm here to kill you".
This is not the time for incompetence in government but we have it in abundance.
We need government. And we need competence.
It is easy to blame Donald Trump. He is such an easy target.
But, that allows those that work to destroy our government the freedom to slither away from any criticism. We know who they are - they are Republicans. They are Mitch McConnell.
Of course they support Donald Trump! He lets them get a free ride.
It is as true today as it was during the time of Ronald Reagan. Those that hate government cannot govern.
There is a lesson there for all that wish to see.
