fwiw this is exactly the kind of behavior + attitude we screened out of future lieutenants at the Army’s Officer Candidate School Blame gaming, esp while fact finding is still ongoing, during a dynamic emergency situation is often “not my fault” panic energy that rarely translates to high performance teams

If people in a team aren't willing to fail because they'll be blamed or faulted when things go badly, the team will never be anything more than mediocre. Trying and failing is the only way to figure out what it takes to be high performing. Surely everyone in Trump's orbit knows its only a matter of time before he turns on them.

i mean... Trump has been roughly the same person for 60 years and still gets to do his hire, fire, and trash talk dance so idk dude Feels like a lot of "oh no it could never happen to me" attitudes, but maybe I'm biased It could all just be a function of how obviously ineffective the alternative team is too lol

Yeah, either 'it could never happen to me' or a more cynical, 'I'll endure abuse to make the money and get out'. In defense of the alternate team, while they're obviously deeply flawed, the parties are held to wildly different standards - it's a complicated situation but I think media funding plays a part in it.

ultimately, you fight the battle you're in, not the one you wish you were in so i have very little sympathy for "rules of the game" arguments it's a same as it ever was kind of situation of their own making in a lot of ways
