Ratcliffe and Rubio - Traditional and legitimate

Gaetz - To pick him for AG is the pick by a sociopath ( that is correct sir or madam )

Hegseth - a true MAGA warrior - he will be the devil’s disciple. His high intelligence makes him even scarier. Instead of just doing what he is told he will come up
with his own ways to inflict grievous harm to the military. He will be a new best friend of Putin.

Kristi Noem - picked for Department of Homeland Security - I guess she is a traditional pick but I just can’t get over how she murdered a dog and a goat in the same gravel pit and joyfully disclosed all of the lurid sickening details in a book. She was very proud of what she did.

Ok I get it. The joy fullness of criminal murder and abuse of animals makes her highly qualified in MAGA world for head of DHS. Was she in Springfield Ohio. Maybe she was killing and or eating the dogs and cats of the people that live there.

Elise Stefanik - UN - normal traditional

Hobard - Border Czar - intelligent and will be efficient and brutal. Sadist = Qualified.

Tulsi Gabbard - Department of Intelligence - OMG pick. She is a crazy lady and a conspiracy theorist. Somewhere along the line she got on the same crazy train that Mike Flynn got on.

The chief of staff - normal and traditional

IMO 3 people needing confirmation should not get it.
Watch for the attempt to push them all through a recess appointment nullifying the advise and consent of congress ( a little autocratic ? )

Mr. Hegseth not only lacks requisite experience but he is a very mercurial man.
His mood and disposition fluctuate between crazy and wild maniac crazy. I do not exaggerate. Once as a fox employee he threw an ax ( not a guitar ) in the vicinity of pedestrians plural and came close to killing someone. Later he thanked God that did not happen.

The terms of the settlement against him and Fox were never disclosed.

Not only is he on the crazy train; he is the conductor of the choo choo train.

He is dangerously incompatible for such a serious job of running the Department of Defense.

Only a deranged lunatic could appoint him. They both suffer from Trump Deranged Syndrome.

If you think I’m trying to be funny read about him in an article from Mediaite. Get the link from the Drudge Report. A few things are hopefully satirical comments of his but they not be. Other things discussed show that he is crazy as belonging in the company of people like RFK Jr.
and Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Just when you thought the utter incompetence couldn’t possibly get any worse… ladies and gentlemen and non-binary colleagues, your new secretary of HHS: RFK Jr.

Every American who voted for Trump should be hanging their head in shame today… and apologizing.

I actually predicted it either right before or just after the election.

His base will be at the top of the people who suffer the most because of him.

For those who say these people won’t be confirmed Trump will try recess appointments. Those who say he isn’t really serious about them because he knows they cannot be confirmed are dead wrong.
He spoke about wanting recess appointments a few days ago before he rolled them out. He really wants these people.

He waited for today’s two until after he went to speak with Biden.

He should appoint Biden as Labor Secretary - nobody has ever been so good in creating jobs.

I took the defeat of gaining an evil man with serious issues of lying and needing revenge and committing crimes and imploring and insisting and inspiring others to commit crimes for him, very well which surprised me.
Lord of the Flys, if you fool me once then shame on you ; but if you fool me twice then shame on me. I was not fooled by what could happen this time, I took the result in stride as I was prepared. ( because I live in the real world ).

But It is the specter of reality and the birth of utter surrealism to see the selections. This is scary and can lead to consequences better off understood.

I will say that among many eventualities he will give us a country where people report on each other and federal officers are breaking down doors and terrorizing legal and illegal immigrants alike and citizens too.

If you think that DWB was bad this is going to be like what happened to Anne Frank.

But I am talking about one thing with the above.
There are even much much scarier things ahead

dude

cut your country peops some slack

it's a dog. you can no more murder a dog than you can a fetus. she did what country people do: put the lame dog down personally -- not citywise take it to the vet where some half educated dot head "doctor" is gonna charge you $100 for a $1 bullet

It has been established that many in the radical right wing inc. want to end birthright citizenship of those who are born in the United States from parents that are illegal. Many want that to stop.

It dawned on me and I have not heard this mentioned anywhere that there could be a push to end a pathway to a green card when someone overstays their visa and marries a citizen or permanent resident.

It seems to be a logical progression.

Are there 2 bums as sleazy looking and scum baggy looking as Steve Bannon and Alex Jones? So sickening that rats sceeve them. They can’t walk around alone outdoors because the cops will try to take them to homeless shelters.

Gender flipping Gorgons.

It's as if tRump is playing a game of "I've even more incompetent than Kamala and the Democrats have been warning you"

Nice try being cute but you mix metaphors when you lump "non-binary colleagues" into a Trump rant. That's your side. Trump is gonna actually do something about that silliness. Who picked up your son from girls soccer practice today, you or your it/they/them partner ?

I've said from the start we're screwed for 4-8 years no matter who we get. At least now it'll only be 4 years and then hopefully decency will return. In the meantime Dems are still weird and y'all still be crying like Jimmy Kimmel sissy girly girl no matter what Rep is next up. Trump, probly rightfully so, just gave you more ammo for pedal-to-the-metal this time around

Show me 1 urban city with a Republican mayor. Show me 1 urban area where there's more Republican congressmen then Democrat congressmen. It's Democrats that run the urban cities. Oakland, Philadelphia, Chicago, Portland. These are the worst parts of America. The most murderous, the most bankrupt, the most hopeless. These are all run by Democrats. Republicans run cities, counties, municipalities with much lower poverty and better run schools in the past generation, more likely to balance their budget, much more bizzness competitive. Here in Denver/Colorado a great example of Demo destruction, slave to federal welfare programs, broken schools, addicted to government benefits, stuffed in clustered urban areas. 90% of the most bizzness competitive states in America are run by Republican governors. Then there's Colorado and its funny gov. Have Democrats fixed anything in the past 60 years ? Thanx Obama ! Do facts confuzzle you ? Then throw a smoke grenade and disappear into your woke mist

What a purely hateful POS post.
It's folks like you that caused me to LEAVE the Repugs.
They are generally hateful and ignorant.
When you elect the Lawless there is No LAW.

Folks that hate where they live should MOVE!!

I ask the MAGA voters of America,
Are you still proud of “what” you put into the Oval Office?
It is on the voters who support that conglomeration of whatever he is.
What has MAGA and the all I care about is My taxes people wrought upon the country and the world.

To not link Trump to coming calamitous changes he will be causing is to be chickens without heads.
Everything he does whether domestic policy or trade or war on science or foreign policy has usually potential catastrophic possibilities.

What I cannot figure out and I’m sure others who had fully functioning brains and patriotism when they voted is this - this is the thing always on my mind when I think about Trump.:
What is motivating him, what makes him tick?

So many things that he stands for makes his agenda scream out that the man is evil.

His obsequious behavior toward Putin and Russia beg the questions, What is in it for him, why does he conform foreign policy to help Russia while hating Ukraine and being gleeful to take us out of NATO ?

Do not his cabinet positions demonstrate some type of severely aberrant psychological stability and abnormal
thinking?
And on the other hand does not his cabinet picks seem to indicate a desire to fatally injure some institutions and cause grave damage to the country the values and the future of the country?
And does not his actions and support for Russia and fellow dictatorships indicate yet another desire to help Russia by bringing America to its knees?

It is very difficult to assess his mind - is he a Russian stooge? Is he an essentially evil person?
Is he profoundly mentally disturbed in his bizarre actions and goals ?
Is he a dangerous autocrat who admires the worst and most dangerous leaders of other countries?
Is he so narcissistic that he would bring down the country just to feed his ego and put loads of money in his pocket and bring him into his beloved club of the axis of evil?

All of the above seem to be intertwined and it isn’t just one of those issues.
And part and parcel does anyone really know if he believes some or all of his lies. Is it all evil or delusional or both?
I think that he is a very sick and very evil man all wrapped up into a monster.

He is a Russian doll of black thoughts and hatred.

There are few things that send a stronger signal about a person's discomfort with their own gender and sexual identity, than when someone gets squirrelly about pronouns and capital letters they don't understand.

As for the nonsense about rethuglican "leadership" I invite anyone with half a brain to spend a few minutes researching which states have the healthiest people, the longest life expectancy, the lowest infant mortality rates, the highest education, the highest per capita income...without even trying hard you will see an incredibly strong correlation with the blue states largely at the very top, and the reddest of red states at the very bottom. The deepest red states in the US consistently fail their people in economics, health, education, and overall wellbeing.
