5 days into President Trump's presidency, paranoia gripped America's diplomats.
Trump wanted to stop sending foreign aid "to counties that hate us", thought it was unclear whether this meant development aid or military assistance or both. "nobody can do that better than me", Trump added helpfully.
US Diplomat Tom Countryman (real name, look it up) was alarmed. "the transition was a joke. any other administration, there were experts on foreign policy with government experience. in this case, it wasn't so" Countryman bellowed.
Trump fired Countryman on Day 1. Drain. The. Swamp.
