In addition she has zero experience collecting or analyzing foreign intelligence.
She's great at gathering US intelligence for foriegn adversaries. Exactly what Trump wants her for.
I wouldn't trust her with collecting a stool sample
What do you mean, she just has to scrape it off her face? Unless you mean her own stool sample in which case yeah
What do you mean? She has plenty of experience being a foreign intelligence asset
Yeah but that involves collecting domestic intel, not foreign intel
Or just intelligence. Zero experience there too.
Of all the nominees, I think this is the one that is most mind boggling to me. It just makes no sense from any perspective. Even drain the swamp MAGA types can't really get behind it when she's just another two faced politician.
Most of the appointments are just career politicians or career political pundits. They’re not outsiders.
Trump never wanted to drain the swap. He wants to rule it.
They are getting behind her though, any video I've seen talking about her history with Russia, China and Syria is getting inundated with Trumpers yelling that it's leftist propaganda and shouting that "they didn't start talking about it until she became a republican". It's ridiculous and there's no argument that would convince these people otherwise.
Tough to judge from internet activity, since those aren't necessarily American MAGAs. They could be anything, with the internet being both global and pseudo-anonymous. I would certainly expect that reaction from influence campaigns.
After the whole stolen documents fiasco I'm not surprised at all, Trump wants her full time job to be flipping through intel reports and flagging ones other nations would pay money for him to smuggle to them.
Dr. Oz or RFK Jr didn't set off any alarm bells for you?
I'm not fond of the picks, but I can at least perceive the MAGA-logic, oxymoron though that may be.
as if anyone can do anything about it now (*edit: now that gaetz, has withdrawn his nomination, amazing, maybe somethings still can be done about trumps garbage people picks!)
The comments are not what I’d be worried about.
I know she’s a terrible person, as is Kristi Noem, but I do instinctively feel a little bad for them that they might have to be the eye candy in the known sex criminal cabinet meetings.
Linda McMahon? Not so much. She’s been in the squared circle. If she didn’t learn how to give a good People’s Elbow or Stone Cold Stunner, that’s her problem.
You can all downvote me for making a joke about the WWE Attitude Era. I didn’t come here for internet points. I came here to layeth the smacketh down, jabronis.
