https://www.aol.com/article/news/2017/06/05/poll-trump-approval-rating-plummet/22125229/
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Anti-Trumps say “Reince Priebus’ job security comes from few wanting his job.” GAO hired me in 1980 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job. IRS hired me in 1971 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. The Post Office hired me in 1966 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. One reason why the Democrats who ran GAO did not get rid of me sooner than they did in 1997 was that the agency was almost always under hiring freezes.
