So if I were a foreign asset and in charge of the executive branch, I would ensure that every cabinet position and agency was headed by an incompetent, obnoxious, embarrassing criminal, so it simultaneously: discredits the institution, accelerates dissolution of public faith in government, actively damages the agency and its mission, and weakens the United States by a death of 1000 cuts.

But that’s just if I were a foreign (why not Russian) asset actively working against the best interests of the United States.
