I guess the concept of being a "public servant" is sometimes lost on some of our more elite officials.
We interpret our view of people often by merely noting their position or title.
Used to be if you worked for the government, you were designated a "GS" employee or perhaps, "GS Supergrade" if you were at or near the top of your field or agency. But you were still "GS" - - Government Service.
The GS has not gone away but the old "Supergrade" classification name was replaced by the SES, the "Senior Executive Service".
Well now...hmmm, now that you're a "Senior Executive", maybe they should just drop the word "Service" from the designator, what with this new breed of public service demanding to be addressed and treated as royalty.
Didn't Scott Pruitt attempt to justify private chartered air service and First Class seating on commercial because of his stated view of "the little people"?
They're vulgar and a threat to his PSD
(personal security detail) all because
one passenger yelled "You're ****ing up the environment." at him.
But then again, Pruitt is just echoing the actions of his boss.
Donald Trump is hardly any kind of public servant.
Trump's first thoughts of the day, at least on Twitter, are all about Donald Trump.
His last tweets before he closes his eyes are, all about Donald Trump.
Pretty much every tweet in between is "all about Donald Trump" as well, unless Donald Trump is attacking someone else, all in the defense of Donald Trump, of course.
Wouldn't it be nice if a President's first and last thoughts and the thoughts filling up his day were primarily about how he can help the American people? Would that be too much to ask?
