So far these alleged cabinet picks are so fucking ridiculously unqualified that it's looking less like an actual cabinet and more like a casting call for "The Celebrity Apprentice 2025" -
For those that know their history there is a smell of Stalin about this - he got rid of all his capable generals too weakening his army a lot pre WW2.
I hear Trump is trying to put a Fox TV guy in charge of the 800 billion dollar Department of Defence...

Thank you MAGAt fucks. We are starting to see the slippery slope, Trump’s path to authoritarianism / dictatorship.- Recess appointments for his executive-branch appointees (cabinet appointments). Trump’s plan to circumvent the established process for checks and balances. Cabinet members are nominated by the president and must be approved by the Senate.
- An executive order draft is floating around MAGA world that would establish a Trump-appointed “warrior board” with the power to purge any three- or four-star generals as it sees fit.
Thankfully I have the means to get out of this shit show on a moment’s notice if the time comes.

They ran that fucking ad multiple times during every football game on the air in October. Probably ran it elsewhere too, but football is pretty much the only time I subject myself to commercials anymore. And if I can catch a football game on a bootleg Canadian stream - avoiding both political and big pharma ads - even better.
First time I saw the ad I thought it was a bad SNL skit. Can't imagine what sort of moron could take it seriously, but apparently they did.Leave a comment:

"The major problem, one of the major problems, for there are several, with governing people is that of who you get to do it. Or, rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them. To summarize: it is a well known and much lamented fact that those people who most want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made president should on no account be allowed to do the job. To summarize the summary of the summary: people are a problem."

There are many aspects of Trump's leadership style, personality, and decisions he's made that I don't care for at all.
For me... the choice was purely policy based between the two candidates. Neither of which impress me as human beings...
I wouldn't want the job.Leave a comment:

The interview Carville points to and her response sealed it for a lot of people I know... Harris either was delusional to think what the Biden administration had been doing was great and working for the greater good for Americans, which it wasn't or... Harris was such an incompetent leader that she had no answer or even prepared for such an obvious and simple question.
I'm leaning toward the later...Leave a comment:
