In the Federalist Paper #76 Alexander Hamilton warned us against something. What ?

He warned us against a president who would appoint a compliant dope to be an OBSEQUIOUS   INSTRUMENT OF THE PRESIDENT'S PLEASURE.  That is precisely what Matthew Whitaker is. An obsequious instrument of the president's pleasure. He is installed as Acting AG to protect the president and to let the president do whatever he wants whenever he wants however he wants as often as he wants. In other words an official toady sycophant who has no interest in protecting the country against a wackadoodle  president and is only interested in being a bobble head yes man 24/7. Obsequious instrument of the president's pleasure. Alexander Hamilton had a way with words. Presidents have tried it before and failed. When George W. Bush wanted to appoint Harriet Miers to a job for which she was totally and completely incompetent that  obsequious instrument of the president's pleasure came up again. How insightful for Hamilton to know so long ago that there would be a need for it futurely so long ago. So. Now we sit and watch. Are ya happy with Matt or d'ya think he should be bounced and replaced by a  REAL person and not  another obsequious instrument of the president's pleasure?
