It's hard to worry about things that have not happened.   And for Motley, no those things are not crisis that demand immediate action or risk national security.     

The President has found his strength is also his weakness, as is the case with most of us.   His independence from political life leaves him a serious gap in knowledge as to the skills and disposition of candidates to fill rolls.    While I'm sure his corporate structure is fairly large it pales in comparison to the federal bureaucracy.    His somewhat paranoid approach to finding 'loyal' workers gets in the way of him being ok with competence alone.     

The gross bias/disdain for federal departments insults those who have done their work diligently for years if not decades, through a variety of administrations.  His approach is to starve all social programs of their needed funding, virtually assuring underperformance,  which reaffirms his preset belief that social supports are counter productive.
