"many patients are trapped in a revolving door of admission, discharge, and readmission" - a place or organization that people tend to enter and leave very quickly.
"the newsroom became a revolving-door workplace"
Donald Trump dismisses FBI bigwigs (James Comey), fires former confidantes, turns against his most loyal early supporter (Jeff Sessions). and eats coffee boys (George Papadopoulos) for breakfast.
Donald may turn to Temp Agencies to fill these positions. He enjoys not adding USA Ambassadors to countries across the globe. No American ambassador presently assigned to South Korea.
The Donald keeps government employees on the unemployment line, denizens of the Deep State are stuck in basements, shooting pool or playing video games until things change.
Why Trump's rapid turnover. He has turned the White House into a revolving door atmosphere. If you grew up in New York City, you know revolving doors. They are found on the ground floor of high rise buildings.
Trump loves added his logo, the name Trump, to the top of these buildings. Revolving doors symbolize speed and efficiency. Maybe Trump's childhood visits to Manhattan made a big impression-- a regular primal experience.
"I'd love to send people flying through those doors when I grow up," young Donald may have thought.
Trump's dismissals of personnel are not always that-- and many resignations have been thrown in the mix.
Recent developments: Rob (accused wife beater) Porter fired... Hope Hicks resigned. Hope famous for being a Trump confidante. She answered to the Mueller investigators. Made a dash to the revolving door afterwards... Gary Cohn bolted. Cohn, Economics advisor, folded up his laptop and headed back towards Wall Street.
Look-up The Art of the Deal, and see what Trump;s co-author Tony Schwartz had to say. Ain't a pretty picture. Schwartz's comments on Trump's short attention span bring to Fire and Fury by Michael Wolff.
Revolving Door. Let's get the invention facts:
American inventor Theophilus Van Kennel reportedly hated holding doors open for women, so he created energy-efficient revolving doors to cure his social phobia.
(Noah Friedman, Business Insider, Dec. 19, 2016)
And from Wikipedia:
Theophilus Van Kennel was recognized for his invention with the John Scott Medal by the Franklin Institute in 1889, founded the Van Kannel Revolving Door Company, which eventually was bought out by the International Steel Company in 1907. International Steel Company is the parent company of International Revolving Door Company.
Van Kennel invented and owned Witching Waves, an amusement ride introduced at Luna Park, Coney Island, in 1907.
Witching Waves is an interesting name for the amusement ride at Coney Island by Van Kennel.
Mysterious waves lapping at the shore. Waves washing ex-White House staffers out to sea... Witching Waves describes America's continuous turnover rate at the top.
Mr. Trump professes conflict is key to his management style. Hard to argue with the pugnacious president.
