The show has potential, but man, do I have some gripes about it. If you have any, please post them for the rest of us.
Why would a junior speechwriter be allowed to, or invited to tag along with the big dogs?
By big dogs, I mean, the president, the deputy chief of staff, the president's assistant, and the president's detail.
There are only two congresspeople, a Democrat and a Republican. Yet the main congressperson still has a red tape, bureaucratic mindset.
She uses quid pro quo, takes sniper shots at the new president, and has veiled presidential aspirations [think Frank Underwood in House of Cards].
It's almost certain the new Chief of Staff and the president's Special Advisor are falling for each other. The guy even got her to call off her engagement.
The Deputy Director of the FBI butts heads with one of his best agents, and when she calls his bluff, he asks her to reconsider transfer/reassignment.
Since when do you promote someone who goes behind your back, commits a gross act of insubordination, and claims he did it in your best interest?
Apparently, the new president does when he declines the Deputy Chief of Staff's letter or resignation, and promotes him to the top position.
Lots of people say big government is not a good thing. This show puts that to the test. I think smaller is better. You accomplish more when
you don't have lots of people in the way. Too many minds with too many agendas.
I'm interested in seeing where the show goes from here. By the way, Kiefer Sutherland, the king of "24", is the new sitting president.
