President Trump says he's ridding the country of waste, fraud and abuse.
But Max Steyer, president of the nonprofit Partnership for Public Service, says Trump is turning the government into one that serves the private interests of those in power, not the public good.
In a statement, the White House told NPR Trump's only motivation is, quote, improving the lives of the American people and making the country greater than ever before.

Haste makes waste. There's been some attention paid to the speed of the intended appointments, but you don't actually go fast if you don't do the necessary preparation work to make sure you're going well. And there is no prior incoming administration that has seen intended nominees blow up at the speed at which we've seen so far.
