      He even turned off the “Contact Us” portion of whitehouse.gov. Trash.

        Really… You think Joe gave the order to turn that off? I can’t even imagine

          You suppose either that:

          • he never read the communication from whitehouse.gov
          • he never cared about it
          • he isn’t or wasn’t aware of it
          • he wasn’t told about the change

          What’s the best explanation?

            He has staff who have autonomy to make decisions on the trivial things, so he can focus on big picture. In any org over about 35 people, you kind of need to do that, otherwise the exec is going to be killed by a thousand papercuts

              He has staff to ignore the plebs for him. Who do we think we are, Netanyahu?
