#6  According to the Washington Examiner, the good admiral was appointed in 2016.

Rear Adm. Jeffrey Harley took over as president of the Newport, Rhode Island, college in July 2016. The college, which grooms senior officers, faces a budget deficit of about $5 million. Harley approved about $750,000 in raises in the same year, according to the Associated Press.

President Obama blighted everything he touched, as far as I can tell.
