Camp Swampy

    The aforementioned Camp Swampy is the fictional locale occupied by Beetle Bailey and the dysfunctional platoon overseen by the ineffectual "Sarge".   The whole camp seems to be an enormous boondoggle operated by the Army to keep all the misfits and malcontents in one place.  Presumably in the Beetle Bailey alternate reality, the rest of the military is competent.
     Cheetolini's cabinet secretaries are a virtual Camp Swampy.   By turns, they are malevolent, incompetent, corrupt and venal.   A tiny minority may actually believe they are serving their country by restraining the president's* primal urge to corrupt anything he touches.  However, most of them have resigned in disgust.  Elaine Chao is now being scrutinized for directing the Transportation Department to expedite projects in Kentucky, where her husband, the odious Mitch McConnel is running for re-election.   Agriculture Secretary, former Georgia Governor, Sonny Perdue will seemingly be the next to be investigated.   Under his watch, 2 Brazilian crooks were awarded money under the program which compensates farmers for tRump's trade war with China.   A Japanese company was also awarded over $200,000 on Perdue's watch.   By the end of his first (and only) term, the president* may have an entire cabinet of Acting Secretaries since most of the original cast will have resigned in disgust or disgrace.
