The Frankish Reich Posted November 27 Posted November 27 A quick scorecard: Â Solid picks/no complaints: Â State: Rubio. Normal mainstream pick/failed Presidential candidate. Experience on the appropriate Senate committee. Speaks Spanish is a plus. Treasury: Bessent. Normal mainstream pick/uber-wealthy investment banker. George Soros guy, has made a lot of money on seeing things coming. Interior: Burgum. Same as Rubio. Always goes to a western state pol. Nothing to see here. HUD: Turner. This seems to be the Trump "put a Black guy in there" department. Unlike Dr. Ben, has shown interest in the field, working on opportunity zones, etc. And yes he is the only Black nominee. Surgeon General: Fox TV doc. a largely symbolic office that is all about public communication. So here a TV personality works. Chief of Staff: Wiles. Could've been a Matt Gaetz type. Pat Summerall's daughter, which is probably preferable to John Madden's daughter. Â Elections have consequences, I'll take my medicine like a good boy: Â VA: Collins. Who? That's the point. Apparently worked on the Trump Georgia election challenges, but I'll forgive him for that indiscretion. Labor: Chavez de Remer. A typical Democratic nominee. Checks two boxes (Dem + Hispanic). Trump's attempt to curry favor with unions. OK, fine. Energy: Chris Wright. Oilman. A little concerned about lack of experience with other major Energy things (nuclear), but again ... elections. Economic advisor: Hackett. Nice guy. Even though economists struggle to hit .500 with their up/down, bull/bear projections, an abysmal track record ... EPA: Zeldin. Did I really think an environmentalist would get this job? I could have stomached RFK Jr. here, but not there. OMB: Vought. Back again. Trump is responsible for lying about Project 2025, not Vought. It's what people should've realized they were voting for. UN Ambassador: Stefanik. Pulling a Nikki. Watch out JD for 2028, But she is smart and apparently a hard worker who has now gone full suck-up mode. Really bad picks: Â Ag: Brooke Rollins. Not the place for a pure political consultant. Farmers should feel insulted by this dump job. DOT: Sean Duffy. A dumber Buttigieg. No business running a major Department. DHS: Noem. Interior was right for her. DHS is too much for her. Someone other than a pure sycophant needed for this job. Another "watch your back, JD" Trade: Some guy named Jamieson Greer. Seems a little too Trump tariff-happy. At least he's not Peter Navarro. CIA: Ratcliffe. Whatever. He was gonna resurface somewhere. Â This is some kind of a sick joke, right? RUFKM?? Â Justice: Bondi, Gaetz the Lesser. She is nominally qualified, but getting this job after committing to prosecute her predecessors at DOJ is a disqualifier. Period. DOD: Hegseth. A huge Department that requires personnel management policy guidance experience, of which he has neither, even if he is just a horndog and not a rapist. Commerce: Lutnick. The consolation prize. Way, way too conflicted, particularly with his Tether crypto cheerleading now. No reason to have this guy in government. You gotta ask "what's in it for him?" Fought tooth and nail to get Treasury, so he really, really wants in. Education: Linda McMahon. Enabler of sexual abuse (you did have to blow Vince if you wanted to be a WWE girl), steroid abuse, you name it. No apparent qualifications for this job, just like she had none for SBA. Campaign contributor dump job. Wasn't the Ambassador to Bahamas available? Medicare/Medicaid: Dr. Oz. Why? I mean, why would he want this? A drudgery for even the wonkiest, and that sure ain't him. HHS: the ultimate choice. RFK Jr. Drug abuser (but he says doing heroin did make him a better student). Addict. Phone sex participant DURING HIS CAMPAIGN. Nanny harasser. Dead bear cub depositor. Spreader of conspiratorial mis (dis?)information. Utterly unqualified for the job other than the negative qualification of being an anti-vaxxer. Buffoon who makes Biden's voice sound powerful.

This should be an interesting 4 years of trump doesn’t get impeached first. For example, Bondi. Let's say DOJ really does try to prosecute Jack Smith for something or other. It is really, really difficult to prevail on some kind of selective prosecution/prosecutor should have recused type of claim. But pledging to prosecute Trump's political enemies before being selected opens the door to that. 1

Just line trumps pockets with money and you too can lead a department for the US govt.  will he decorate all the air craft carriers with expensive paintings? Any artists on here? Maybe you can have your art on a navy ship!
