Garcetti was made the ambassador to India. Some Kennedy member was made an ambassador to somewhere else. This is an old government trope where friends and supporters are legally given these positions without regard to needs if actual diplomacy. Like u said the trend was already there and Trump is just pushing it to its limit here.
