Donald J. Trump continues to fill out his cast of Cabinet-level goofballs, fruitcakes and assorted loyalists … just as he promised he would prior to the 2024 presidential election.
The latest cast member to sign on is Linda McMahon, the former exec with the World Wrestling and Entertainment outfit run by her husband, Vince McMahon. Linda McMahon has been nominated to be our nation’s education secretary.
Her education credentials? The silence you hear is evidence that she doesn’t have anything in her background. No administration experience. Nothing, man!
But … she is a Trump loyalist along with attorney general nominee and one-time DOJ investigative target Matt Gaetz, Fox News blowhard and defense nominee Pete Hegseth, Kennedy political scion and anti-vaxxer health and human services boss RFK Jr., and Russian agent and director of national intelligence nominee Tulsi Gabbard.
I mean, good grief! What the hell is the POTUS-elect seeking to do here?
The only good news I can find is that there appear to be enough Republican senators who are finding their long-squishy backbone to block many of the nuttiest of the nut jobs Trump has gathered around him.
Considering you didn’t write a post criticizing ANY of Biden’s picks, I don’t think you’re qualified for an opinion.
I disagree. I am fully qualified to state my opinion on the idiotic appointments coming from Trump.
The author and owner of this blog has every right to express his opinions on any subject.
He’s been an opinion columnist for years.
He has never, that I know of, claimed to be a journalist who is bound to keep his opinion in check and report strictly on facts.
I may or may not agree with some of his opinions but that doesn’t disqualify him from writing them.
I have my own opinions and John has allowed me to share them by responding; as I’m doing now.
Don’t care for his views? Be like The Dude- “ Yeah, well that’s just like, your opinion man.”
Keep on writing John- Saul Goodman.
I want to stipulate that when I cover news events — city councils, school boards, human interest stories — I am obligated to keep my opinions at bay. I do so proudly. When I write commentary, such as on this blog, I declare my bias up front. I cannot hide it any more than my critics can hide theirs. Thanks for writing and expressing yourself.
