The bill that’s been getting round the clock coverage? The war for which graphics departments around the world have been busy creating logos? The dozens of attempts to use the office for personal and nepotistic enrichment, all of which have been covered pretty exhaustively by both the media and the principals involved? Why would you think the admin would bother using a distraction when openly going full Dark Triad Mode has been so successful for them?
