    It's one thing to appoint a bunch of far-right politicians but many of these choices just seem stupid. Matt Gaetz has no idea how to run the Justice Department...the new Defense Secretary is a Fox News host...Tulsi Gabbard a laughable choice to be intelligence director.

    These people will probably spend most of their time stuck in controversies that are a result of their own incompetence rather than making whatever reforms Trump voters are imagining.

    However one of the trademarks of Trump's political career is that his followers have shown again and again they can't tell the difference.

    • why is T.Gabbard a laughable choice?uan
    • I don't see how anyone who was barely ever a practicing lawyer, and absolutely never a prosecutor, should run the DOJmg33
    • Hilarious; America will officially be a kakistocracy.moogchild
    • Tulsi was a member of Congress and served in the Army Reserve...no intelligence experience at all. Typically you'd pick someone with a lot of knowledgeyuekit
    • for such a serious job. She's popular on social media because she talks vaguely about ending overseas wars but there's zero substance there.yuekit
    • Hegseth (Defense Nom) has been married 3 times. The first 2 ended after he got (what would become) his next wife pregnant.jbasnight
    • obviously I don't know her...but being a soldier with combat experience serving in a medical unit, I bet she saw a lot of damage caused by the intelligence.uan
    • Gaetz was being investigated for drug use and sex trafficking underage girls. There are clips where you can see him doing what appears to be a bump of coke inyuekit
    • Congress. But hey...this is what people voted for lol.yuekit
    • I got the impression a lot of ppl voted against something this time. now they hope for a Susan Boyle moment.uan
