Chai Komanduri on Fed Chair Ruling: Trump Is Surrounded by Incompetent People, Because He Believes They’re Good on TV

‘Simply because they are sycophants’

RUSH EXCERPT:
KOMANDURI: "Yeah. And I think part of the issue with the Trump authoritarian project is Trump himself. Trump has hired incredibly incompetent people because they are good on television. I mean, we see this with Pete Hegseth right now. We also see with Jeanine Pirro. And for Trump, it makes sense. He says, I was good on TV and people hired me to be president. Maybe I should do that and make that the main criteria by which I hire people. Now, I personally don’t think Jeanine Pirro is that good on television. You know, I always thought she was kind of a knockoff judge judy. You know, she was kind of the kid rock halftime show to the bad bunny halftime show. But Trump did think she was really good on TV. And the problem is, is that he has surrounded himself by enormously incompetent people like Kash Patel, like Pam Bondi, like Jeanine Pirro, simply because they are sycophants, and he believes that they are good on television."
