Reagan had a fucking court astrologer casting horoscopes and looking at goat entrails to determine his schedule. (IANMTU) And Nancy's machinations behind the scenes were not guided by anything other than her concerns regarding how things looked, her almost unbelievable miserliness, and maintaining the obsequiousness of Ron's staff towards her first, and Ron second. Anyone showing signs of not following her program got the whack-a-mole treatment.
Again, with the Reagan administration, incomptence was an attribute. With post 1994 republicanism, incompetence was the means to seek attainment of the truly nefarious end.
