Trump could care less what whiny Democrat supporters think, you lost the 2016 election, and you're going to lose another one soon, get over it, grow up, or find a dolly to hold.
Do you Trumpers imagine that your never going to lose another election? You realize all the off the wall, counter to convention and marginally immoral (if not marginally illegal) ways of doing things that you think are good will be precedent, right? The next democrat president may very well push things. Your lead, even in the electoral college was not that much.
The level of childish, immediate gratification junior high school level glee based approval of bad behavior is harmful to you too, and more than a little bit dangerous.
President Trump announced Wednesday that he is recalling the U.S. ambassador to Germany, Richard Grenell, to name him the acting director of national intelligence, confirming a New York Times report.
...
Grenell, an outspoken Trump ally, will replace Joseph Maguire, who took over as acting DNI after Dan Coats, the former Republican senator from Indiana, resigned in August. Maguire is required to give up the role before March 12, after which the president can appoint any Senate-confirmed official to head the U.S. intelligence agencies.
Grenell will only be able to serve three months as acting director, but does not have to be confirmed by the Senate for the temporary role, having already been confirmed as ambassador. It’s unclear if Trump would move to nominate him for the official role, which would require another confirmation process.
Like this guy a lot. Professional. Dedicated. Non-controversial. Experienced. And it's not a small thing - but he can be trusted by his boss. Great pick.
He’s just putting a loyal stooge in there because he’s butt hurt that a report made it to congress Russia is once again trying to influence the election in his favor out of that office.
Just more corruption, carry on with turning a blind eye because he’s your savior fake *** Americans.
Not corruption. Defense against corruption. It's outrageous that Maguire would exaggerate potential Russian influence to delegitimize his boss.

Meanwhile, Trump supporters as assaulted regularly... since we are talking about bad behavior that's dangerous.

No, they won't be precedent because no other President is likely to have to deal with a new mutiny every week.

It gets better... as this guy was one of the main staffers who worked for Devin Nunes.
First, the article you linked was from 2013. It says that Obama had more vacant positions (13%) than Clinton or Bush. It doesn't compare him to Trump, so where do you get that Obama was "worse"? In fact, this article indicates that Trump has far more - about 25% - vacancies: https://www.washingtonpost.com/graph...cker/database/
The second point is that the article you linked stated that the main reason Obama had so many vacancies was that the Senate (Republican controlled BTW) refused to take action or didn't confirm the nominations. Trump has a Senate controlled by his own party, so what is his excuse?
No, they won't be precedent because no other President is likely to have to deal with a new mutiny every week.
In what world was Obama not continually attacked by a hostile Congress and a right news cabal like Fox, Rush etal?
Or is that not what you meant by mutiny?
