I mean... I thought it was plainly obvious Trump was a Russian asset before his first term and almost a decade later we've had nothing but a non-stop stream of further evidence to support that 'theory'.Russia with direct access to US intelligence. What could possibly go wrong.
Murkowski and Collins will likely vote against some of the comical picks, mostly cause there is not much Trump can do to any of them. But it won't be enough.Nobody is going to come out against any of the picks.
It’s a full on cult at this stage. And the picks basically show dissenters what you get for falling in line.
Not before Giuliani, surely?So when is Michael Flynn's turn to be picked?

Yeah, it's just even more blatant now. The guy has nothing to lose and can literally burn things to the ground with the blessing of many. I think he may be the only POTUS in history who has talked this much shit about his own country (the compilation would be lengthy). That should have been enough of an alarm bell for any leader of any country but ...sometimes I wonder why I am even still trying to rationalize it all.I mean...

He had plenty of bonkers appointments the first time round as well, this is nothing new.
Fire lots of federal employees to improve the efficiency. Vivek basically said fire 75% of them just randomly (even/odd first/last number of SSN).Can anyone explain what is this DOGE? What purpose it will serve?
Matt Gaetz as attorney general.
Oh my days
The 2 bosses of the Dept of Efficiency will claim that as a winCan see half of DOJ resigning if it goes through.
Wouldn't even shock me if that's part of the thought process. I know at least two people in the feds who are looking to get out of dodge. Which is probably what they're hoping happens more of. It's sad because I have met some incredibly talented, devoted and hard work people across different departments in DC you absolutely want working in the public interest.The 2 bosses of the Dept of Efficiency will claim that as a win
Agreed. Guvmint workers get a bad rap sometimes (all the time?) but there a lot of intelligent people that really care about their job. So, what's likely is we'll lose the best ones and the shitty ones will stay. A massive brain drain.Wouldn't even shock me if that's part of the thought process.

Also to close some federal departments entirely and send the remaining outside of DC.
If done right, can be good, but it likely won't be done right.
Not to forget the weekend warrior and Fox News host as Secretary of Defense.Matt Gaetz as attorney general.
Oh my days
Surely this was the utterly inevitable outcome of a Trump second term?It’s funny how it started out fairly normal with Lil Marco, but then it just completely unraveled into levels of depavity I honestly hadn’t anticipated.
Gaetz as AG is worse than I imagined.Surely this was the utterly inevitable outcome of a Trump second term?
I mostly like what I am seeing thus far from president-elect. Gaetz sucks but he is a loyal dog, and loyalty is needed this time around. Tulsi pick is a spot on. Her book - For Love of Country: Leave the Democrat Party Behind - is a great read and truly inspirational.
And that's just RedCafe mods.Dangerously dumb people being put in high positions.
Gaetz and Gabbard are terrible picks. The former is being investigated for having sex with minors and the latter has little to no CV for the position she’s been nominated for. Her military service was related to being a medic and a military police platoon commander, which has feck all to do with intelligence

Rubio and Hegseth aren't any better.Gaetz and Gabbard are terrible picks.

@ExoduS - explain how appointing 2 heads of the Department of Efficiency is a great move
Can anyone explain what is this DOGE? What purpose it will serve?
A drug addict paedophile, what could possibly go wrong?Matt Gaetz as attorney general.

Sorry that was harsh and inaccurate.A drug addict paedophile, what could possibly go wrong?
