It's going to be absolute hell. There is growing dissatisfaction with Donald Trump's actions in the White House after the devastating election defeat, and administration officials are increasingly considering leaving, reports MS NOW, citing former and current officials. Trump's team is angry that the president does not admit responsibility for the failure of his party, and instead of analyzing the reasons for this, he focused on construction projects whose total cost exceeds 600 million dollars. On the eve of the election, Trump spoke at the reflecting pool near the Lincoln Memorial, and the next day spoke to reporters about the progress of construction on a new ballroom at the White House. By this time, Democrats had won Senate elections even in Republican Texas, South Carolina, and Kansas. Trump is convinced that the reason for his defeat was weak candidates, although he personally supported many of them, sources say. The administration believes that the problem lies with the president himself and his reluctance to take responsibility. MS NOW sources describe morale in the White House as low. According to them, the former luster and attractiveness of the work in the administration is gradually disappearing, and the desire to leave is increasing. Some workers are already contacting potential employers to find a new job, while others are advised to seek legal advice as a precaution. One of the channel's interlocutors called the prospect of working in the White House in the next two years "hell". At the same time, the recruitment problem existed in the past: potential candidates are deterred by relatively low wages in the private sector, instability and limited working hours. One of the sources also noted that some staffers are reluctant to speak openly with Trump about the need to focus on policy goals because they don't believe the president will listen to them.
