It feels like every pick of this administration is just someone who has a motivation for corruption.

I expected a repeat of his first term. Which honestly was quite uneventful. This is not.

Isn't this term just an extension of the end of his last term?

He spent the majority of his term being blocked from doing completely problematic stuff by his staff who he increasingly fired or resigned.

He finally got the end of his term with many more yes-men and started doing things like impounding funds for Ukraine.

The first thing he does at the start of term 2 is more impoundment. Like sure, Day 1 Year 1 Trump doesn't bleed into Day 1 year 5 but Day 364 Year 4 bleeds into Day 1 Year 5 pretty well.
