Ha ha. I'm started to like you Guiss. I think our personalities are similar. I say "I don't disagree with..." often. My staff hates it because they think it's passive aggressive. They respond, "yeah...but you don't necessarily agree either!"
Edit: by the way, I wasn't just talking about Obama...hence the last part of my post.

No. They seem to operate without any communication whatsoever and the cabinet and President will contradict each other on the same day. Bizarrist relationship between a POTUS and cabinet I have ever witnessed. But even though they clearly don't communicate over policy details, the cabinet seemed to learn that they better stroke Trump's ego if they want to keep their jobs.
The relationship is entirely dysfunctional.
Trump has already demonstrated his management style with our military, as he turned loose the commanders on the ground in Syria and Iraq to do what they do best. The Good Guys have made more progress in defeating ISIS in a few months, under Trump, than the past several years under obummer. Well, in fact, obummer is the reason for the ISIS crisis (I like the way that sounds) in the first place. Trump does not deserve any particular credit for this success. It's our military on the ground that is getting it done. (without the micro-managing from DC).
Trump is a successful businessman because pushing decision making down to its lowest level possible makes business sense. Anyone who has been involved in private business knows this. He is doing that with his departments, the cabinet secretaries, and he expects them to perform, or OUT THEY GO!
"Get the job done....or we will find someone who can." - corporate mantra.
Like his casino in Atlantic City and Trump University? Trump is worth about $4 billion today. If he had kept the $200 million he got from his father in the stock market he would be worth $12 billion today.
And who are these "outstanding" people Trump selects to work for him? Lt. Gen. Flynn? Ben Carson?

Salty, I am pondering whether or not I want to waste my time answering your question...because at this point, I have no respect for your opinion or what you believe.
I'll let you know.
And just to help you, Hillary Clinton and the Washington Post say it was $14MM, not $200MM. https://www.washingtonpost.com/polit...=.a6633909e0cb
