3. A president entirely unfit for his office

All of this should surprise no one. A president entirely unfit for his office (temperamentally, intellectually, and in every other imaginable way) — who has cycled through advisers and banished independent voices — gets worse with time. The facade of functionality at the White House started crumbling some time ago: Mistakes and bad hires (including his daughter and son-in-law) have caught up with him over time; the quality of each new addition to the administration is nearly certain to be worse than the person being replaced, while qualified and ethical public servants want no part of this train wreck.
