Trump Administration

[auroraave]

Expect what, for the last eight years hegseth has been a television personality. It would seem nice to have a secretary of defense that had some administrative experience but again, that's probably just me. I'm just getting old and unimaginative. If they reduce the defense department down to nothing then it probably doesn't matter anyway,

Honestly in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine being lumped together with pentagon generals as leftists needing to be purged, that really is funny to me. You want a television presenter in charge of the pentagon and dump the generals go for it, I was protesting against pentagon generals long before you guys, It's like actually putting Abbie Hoffman in charge or Putney Swope. It's certainly is interesting

who the fuck is abbie hoffman or swopes? Welcome to 2024.

DUde - you have two kinds of posts - your 'automatic contrarian' take, or your cut-and-paste of OTHER people's opinions. Well, actually, there's the third - your hilarious Trump outrage - for no particular reason. It's amusing for sure. "he needs administrative experience" while ignoring actual combat experience and a masters in policy - while embracing a 'general in eyeshadow' ideology. LMAO!

There's little chance Gaetz will win confirmation. Weird choice.

I tend to agree.

The person in his posting needs to be emotionless and only worry about the law, and from what I've seen from his time in office is a very emotional person...which is great in The House of Rep's.

You think they reject trump's choice? That would put them on trump's shit list.

Just have to LOL at anyone that questions Trump's picks.

Doesn't seem like they're counting on them needing to be confirmed.

Haven't looked into what he means yet, but interesting take from the most trustworthy guy in politics (imo).

This what Massie meant?

I really don't think these guys are messing around this time. I actually have some hope for the country over the next 12 years-

Gaetz was only nominated so he could resign from his post in congress to end the investigation into him raping and trafficking teenage girls. The ethics committee was set to vote on whether to release their report on the investigation on him today. But they no longer have the jurisdiction to continue the investigation as Gaetz is no longer in congress.

Aside from MTG, he is probably the most reviled elected official in Washington. Republicans hate him, are celebrating his departure, and he will not be confirmed.

This was Trump doing Gaetz a favor for Gaetz's unrelenting loyalty. The confirmation hearing should be entertaining... he's got a lot of explaining to do.

Great start for the party of "law and order" and "we protect women."

Interesting take. Guess we'll see if he's the next AG soon or not.
