Gerald R Ford was never elected to the presidency or vice presidency but he served on the Warren Commission while back channeling Commission work to J. Edgar Hoover at the FBI. Oh, Hillary was a lawyer serving the Commission. https://www.history.com/news/9-things-you-may-not-know-about-the-warren-commission

I'd much rather have the spoils system than what we have now. At least that way new administration can clear everyone out and replace with their own every few years. These lifetime "civil servants" are killing us.

It is not corrupt, though no doubt a small percentage of government employees may be. Don't y'all ever get tired of conspiracy theories?
