In another you can't make this stuff up moment more responsible persons quit under this administration's lack of leadership. They cite the deliberate interference from Trump's new administrator who hasn't even met with them one time since taking office.

I suppose that in the future a Trump slot machine will grace the entrance forcing you to pay up if you want to enter one of them.😛 The only thing he excels at is messing things up.😀

That's OK...they're just traitors to the great Turnip and can easily be replaced with volunteers or industry "experts". Yeah, industry "experts," that's the ticket!

I’m kind of with you it’s not exactly a critical board. 3/4 the board resigning at once is a statement, I’d like to preserve some green space in this Country.

Sure, you can have all the green space you want, provided you understand it can be mined, logged, grazed upon, at the drop of a hat. You'll get it back after they're done, tho.....pardon the mess.

Although the board isn't critical, it says a lot that our security of interior has no interest in meeting with them. It says a lot that our president still hasn't nominated someone to head the NPS and shows a clear interesting in harming the parks and federal lands. The National Parks aren't something that we can just rebuild, once they are abused they are screwed for a long time, or worse in the case of strip mining or damming.

Abusing them would make a handful of people a little money for a couple of decades. While leaving them as is makes a lot of people money forever. Republicans are so short sighted it blows my mind.
 
This is how Trump gets rid of people he either doesn't like, thinks he doesn't need or is in trouble with: Ignore them long enough 'til they get the hint, throw some chump change at them to shut them up and leave him alone, hire their enemies to lord over them or when he gets push back, threaten to sue them to scare them off.

That's the qualities of your typical boss that has no morals. no ethics, no compassion, no people skills yet has the intense desire to be the top dog. Solution? Become the bully in the room in order to force things his way, thus reinforcing and exacerbating those flaws in character that led him to become a bully in the first place.

That's Trump in a nutshell. What's scary about that is that there are millions of folks that admire him for those detestable qualities as if they'd like to be just like him but it's only because they are already just like him.
