People forget the aristocracy is alive and well in the US. These cushy government jobs that pay out the ass with platinum healthcare packages is where most of our “spending” budget goes each year. Create a new program, put in political appointees, pay it forward. then when the politicians retire into executive level corporation positions they call back to the people they put in positions of power.
It's important to understand that authoritarians use vice as a form of control.
People are dependent upon the vice that the authoritarian grants them, and so will fight to maintain that protection and privileged. This is why there are so many degenerates among the elites: pedophiles, drug addicts, alcoholics, womanizers, sluts, pimps, johns; hell, I wouldn't be surprised if there were a couple furries out there.
The image of their leadership is a confidence game that is balanced and the blackmail threat of exposing their vices to the world, which would de-legitimize them.
Incompetence works exactly the same way. Failing a person up into positions of power makes them dependent on their direct superiors. They won't dare take any risks because they can't do anything right; but are always grateful to be micromanaged from the people controlling them.
I remember when worshipping Fauci was a right wing meme.
He seems to want to make it real.
Fucked up everything he's ever touched and still fails upwards. Amazing what can be achieved through being on the "right" side.
AIDS - Fail
H1N1 - Fail
Zika - Fail
How does this report card inspire confidence? Who is Fauci's handler? Birx?

This is why the archetypal bad guy always ends up with lackeys.
Anyone else think Kamala looks like Scar?
Zika was Memory Holed HARD
