But the list goes on and on of people who had decent reputations, then came into contact with Trump. Sean Spicer, Rex Tillerson, HR McMaster, John Kelly.
What's happened with Adm. Jackson is perhaps a new wrinkle on the phenomenon. Jackson's misdeeds preceed his affliation with Trump. Yet, somehow, Trump managed to find another morally compromised person to try and serve in his government.
It's almost like it's not that Trump sucks the dignity from them, it's that they never had but a fig leaf of dignity anyway, and Trump is merely the strong wind that blows it away.
Obligatory NSFW Onion reference.
