Here is probably the most interesting part of the article.
It is common policy, however, that politically appointed ambassadors resign at the start of a new administration. It is less common to have no replacements in line.
As many as 80 ambassadors for countries, agencies and issues - such as the ambassador for global women’s issues - have been discarded at once.
The move now threatens leaving many countries without Senate-confirmed envoys for months and cutting off a direct line to the President, and some in countries which have sensitive relations to the US.
Wait… seriously?
Seriously and it’ll take a while to fill those spots.
apparently what happened (if i’m not mistaken) is that these ambassadors traditionally offer up their resignation at the start of a new presidency but almost always keep their position, like the resignation is just a symbolic gesture? but trump’s team didn’t realize that and they actually accepted people’s resignations but they can’t admit that the trump admin is actually that fucking stupid so they’re just….going with it
we gone full isolationists now
its almost like he has no political experience and wasn’t fit for the job or something
