Here's my attempt to explain the cabinet picks.

Hey kids, I heard berg80 posted another TDS rant.

Am I in the right thread or is that one down the hall?

You're in the right thread. Another day, another berg-fest thread of emotional melting down.

Trump Chooses Longtime Ally Linda McMahon to Run Education Dept.

President-elect Donald J. Trump on Tuesday tapped Linda McMahon, a former professional wrestling executive who ran the Small Business Administration for much of his first term, to lead the Education Department, an agency he has routinely singled out for elimination in his upcoming term.

A close friend of Mr. Trump’s and a longtime booster of his political career, Ms. McMahon had been among his early donors leading up to his electoral victory in 2016 and has been one of the leaders of his transition team, vetting other potential appointees and drafting potential executive orders since August.

In Ms. McMahon, 76, Mr. Trump has elevated someone far outside the mold of traditional candidates for the role, an executive with no teaching background or professional experience steering education policy, other than an appointment in 2009 to the Connecticut State Board of Education, where she served for just over a year.
Trump Chooses Linda McMahon, a Longtime Ally, for Education Secretary

They were picked for their personal loyalty, prior fidelity to trumpery, and unquestioning subservience. And to own the libs, which is a super reason to do anything. That much is a given. But many are cut in his mold as well. First and foremost, almost all are manifestly unfit for the jobs they've been chosen to do. Some were previously accused of sexual abuse, or fraud. Some have experience on TV, especially trump TV, otherwise known as Faux. Some have made remarks that are antithetical to the mission of the agency they will lead. The entire endeavor has become so farcical it's like picking an executive from a clownish entertainment company to run the Dept. of Ed. Wait......that just happened.

As if to say, running government agencies requires no experience, expertise, or sincere desire to make things better. After all, I'm a flaming buffoon and I was the prez. MAGA.

You poor dear. Were you melting down when "Baccareia'' was picked by Biden to run HHS?

You know. The guy with no qualification who Biden picked to run HHS.

At least none of Trump's picks will ever steal your luggage.

Shedding of Democrat tears.

Trump's picks reflect a disdain for ineffective and incompetent bureaucrats who staffed the Biden-Harris Clown Show.

How does Trump appointing an ineffective and incompetent Department Head fix that?

Unless you're a member of Congress, it's not up to you to decide who's "ineffective and incompetent" and who's not.

Just stick to losing elections. Ok, bro?

The least qualified defines the Biden Clown Show. A collection of DIE hires and buffoons.

How does your shedding of tears determine any of Trump's appointments being ineffective or incompetent?

You won't find DIE ideology a criteria used by Trump for cabinet picks.

More reason to shed tears.

I don't care if Trump nominates Hulk Hogan to head the US Postal Service.

Anything to weed out all that "woke" BS.

 

[berg80]

I haven't been able to come up with anything. I think he just wants his friends as close as possible. He doesn't care if they do their jobs well -- he just wants to be followed and adored and protected.

He's a big FUCK YOU to the country. I had no idea that so many people were so miserable.

I still maintain the marginal voters who pushed trump over the top didn't sign up for this madness. Being pissed about inflation or immigration does not translate to wanting hacks and sycophants to fill the cabinet.

Comparing the qualifications of Biden's picks to trump's is a fool's game.

"Marginal voters"

You lost, bro. Get over it. We President now.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

McMahon doesn't need an educational background or experience in policy to manage the dismantling of Ihe department of education. Executive experience will be just fine.

Yep. Many -- most folks don't pay all that much attention to the details. Given the dishonest nature of politics, I can't blame them.

The price of groceries is higher, and they don't like what's happening at the border. That's enough for them. I get that.

Part of that, though, is that the Dems made zero (0) attempt to explain how global inflation blew up like it did. That's on them.

What makes Kristi Noem qualified to run DHS besides her proficiency in shooting dogs?

Dem's messaging is almost always inferior to Repub's. Repub's know how to push simple, disingenuous messaging that resonates with the average Joe. Plus, they are excellent at spreading lies after having so much practice.

I agree. Comparing Biden's collection of Clowns, buffoons and DIE hire freaks to anything but a carnival freak show is a fool's game.

Hide your luggage.

They attempted to blame inflation and high prices on "Putin's price hike", then on "greedy corporate price gouging."

Nobody bought that except a small handful of Harris supporters.

The same can be said for almost all of trump's picks with respect to the agencies they will lead.

Absolutely
But not in the way that you think.
