Paul Krugman Has A Scathing New Nickname For Donald Trumps Administration
The Nobel Prize-winning economist also said Trump surrounds himself with people of extraordinarily low quality.
Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman pulled no punches with his analysis of the people working under President Donald Trump.
In his latest column for The New York Times, Krugman described the people that Trump surrounds himself with as being of extraordinarily low quality.
Lincoln had a team of rivals; Trump has a team of morons, he wrote.
Krugman noted how working for the president used to be a career booster, something that looks good on your résumé. But Trumps presidency was so chaotic, corrupt and potentially compromised by his foreign entanglements that anyone associated with him gets tainted.
Only those with no reputation to lose, generally because theyre pretty bad at what they do were now willing to serve Trump, he continued, adding things have gotten even worse and even dumber and we havent hit bottom yet.
