One thing I think getting lost in all this is, OMG are we learning truckloads about how govt works and how different agencies were started along with their original purposes!!! What President did what, when & sub sequentially how it went pear shaped over the decades.
Watched Russ Voight from the OMB run thru so much info on Tucker Carlson, Erik Prince on Flag Officers lack of any historical military strategy education, plus a ton of other interviews scattered all over YT. Just about any pick of the litter by Trump results in deep dives by people explaining firstly our own governmental history in all three branches before getting into why Trumps pick might be appropriate.
This I don't think was intentional but it's a amazing side effect of the process!
Just sayin' all this is both new & fascinating!!
Completely unexpected as well.
This is probably the first time in decades we're hearing intelligent & relevant conversation on American Civics. (hope I got that right?) It's definately the first time we're having the Constitution front & center along with the Founding Fathers. Have to thank Vivek Ramaswamy for his lecture over on Lex Fridman for just how many of the Founding Fathers were inventors, not just Ben Franklin.
An yes, I'm sure there are more than a few folk here eye-rolling my complete ignorance!
(huge smiles!!)
