If that was the case then your side wouldn't have multiple threads here documenting "liberal meltdowns" or whatever

Let’s hope he doesn’t go awol for five days in a time of heightened global tensions. Unless he has prostate cancer. Then it’s ok for some reason. 

That part of it is fun. If you can’t make fun of and laugh at people that pretend to see NAZIS everywhere what can you laugh at? Tampon dispensers in boys rooms? That’s so Walz era. NAZIS are here to stay!

His first order of business should be to have a phone installed in his office.  That way, he can notify the relevant people if he’s going to be out a day or five.

Like the pick, don’t like the pick…choose a party and you’ll get some feedback one way or the other.  In fact, the same goes for ”whistleblowers” and their credibility.  
 

Bottom line for me—he’s the pick, confirmed by those elected to confirm, and time to move forward.  

Frank’s reliable media now reporting his red eyes suggest he may be part-Wolverine. 

I agree.  Time to see how he does, and hope for the best.

Dei hire is better than DUI hires. Also far better than all these unqualified yes men and blind loyalty hires. And I'm not into all this dei crap.

You're also not into historical fact.

If you had any idea of alcohol use by every military and civilian leadership group from every country, you wouldn't post such  nonsense.

If the dems hate him he must be great. The way idiots think.  What a dumb country. First we have deal with Libtards and their absurd policies. Now we have to deal with hateful Maga who thinks anything to piss off the other side is good policy. We’re a clown slow.

I don’t think so, Ned.  I think the belief that the country was heading in the wrong direction politically makes the Trump agenda generally good policy.  The pissing off of the other side is found money, especially in light of 4 years of government overreach.

The government overreach isn't going to stop.  It's just the way that the government overreaches that's going to change.

I generally share this perspective, but Team Biden and Democrat controlled prosecutors supersized the 🤬 out of overreach, at the same time acting completely hypocritical along the way.   It used to be the theory of mutually assured destruction kept the Rs and Ds in line. The occasional player would fall, but for the most part combatants got rich and powerful in DC. 
 

Now, all bets are off— though it remains to be seen if those in charge target individuals associated with Biden and his cronies.  I’m certainly not suggesting they won’t, or even that they shouldn’t—politics is an ugly business, but it’s going to be difficult to upstage an armed/lethal force approved raid of a political opponent’s dwelling.

People with limited competence in an area may not have the skills to recognize their own incompetence. This can lead to overconfidence, which can cause flawed decision-making. The Dunning-Kruger effect can be explained by the idea that if you don't know something, you also don't have the ability to recognize that you don't know it.
