Trump’s Cabinet Picks: Ignorance, Arrogance, and Meanness Reign Supreme
Read Time:1 Minute, 57 Second
So, Steve Mnuchin, CEO of OneWest Bank, who foreclosed on 10s of thousands of families during the housing crisis, then sold the bank for a profit and watched it implode from the sidelines, was asked how he felt about all that. His reply was Corporate Speak for “Shit happens.”
On the same day, former Texas Governator, Rick Perry, was being questioned on why he felt qualified to run a department he had previously vowed to close down. He said one of the things he’s learned since then, was that the DOE oversees the nation’s nuclear arsenal.
Currently, the head of the DOE has a doctorate in nuclear physics. You know, “It’s not rocket science?” Well, turns out, it is. Rick Perry put on his “smart guy” glasses and proceeded with the interview. So we go from a PhD to a guy who actually had his picture taken, machine gunning “aliens,” at the border. Don’t worry, he didn’t kill anybody. The pic – like Trump’s “speechwriting” pic – was a staged-up fraud.
Trump, that oozing sebaceous cyst, showed up at “White House 3” today – well, Trump Hotel – where a pay as you go gala was had. He made it a point to personally swipe each of the guests’ cards. That way, he could skip out on paying his cashier for the day. In what is sure to be the first of many nonsense speeches – that by the way will become mandatory – he swore not only to “Make America Great Again© but to make it greater than it has ever been. No really.
The arrogant prick not only refers to that “San Simeon” of his, as the “Winter White House” (Eerily reminiscent of the site of Tsar Nicholas II’s death) but he has the audacity to belittle those many times in our shared history – when we truly WERE a great nation.
Today is the Putsch. The day he swears – on not 1, but 2 bibles because 2 bibles make the oath that much the better – to honor and defend a document he’s never read and doesn’t understand. His honoring and defending, however, won’t actually begin until Monday, because he doesn’t want to fuck up a great weekend.
I’m out, and you won’t be hearing from me again until Saturday. But I will be back, and writing even harder than before. Peace. Out.

…and you expected anything else?
The right are rising mate. History tells you how nasty they can be – and I can tell you too as I used to associate with em.
Bad business.
Still. It will get better. Always does. Just don’t know how long it’ll take 🙁
America and Americans still have the means to end this jerk. His entire cabinet is filled with trash so it might take awhile, but we better get started.
I can’t imagine what the future is going to bring. Perhaps I just don’t want to, rather like nightmares. You don’t want to remember them, but sometimes you do.
