What even is reality
She donated a lot of money to his campaign. As did a few others that he’s appointing to offices. Pay to play.
Of course she did
Why do we need an education secretary if the plan is to just do away with education all together.
We’re actually going full Idiocracy, holy shit. That’s crazy.
Except President Camacho found the smartest person he could and immediately put him in charge. We’re not even smart enough to be idiocracy.
In case people forgot, President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho was a porn superstar and, relevantly, five-time Ultimate Smackdown wrestling champion.
I always see this ‘counter argument’ but referring to Idiocracy is more about comparing the stupidness than the President.
I’m not making any arguments, I’m pointing out that wrestling specifically was involved in the plot of Idiocracy.
It doesn’t seem counter at all. Trump is in several Russian porno tapes just ask him, and he was part of WWE multiple times.
So it works in stupidity and his character traits.
between this and dr oz, is he just hiring people he knows from tv?
He appears to be picking people from one of three lists:
- Republicans with media experience (aka people he knows from TV or social media).
- Whoever wrote the relevant section of Project 2025.
- People accused of being Russian assets (mostly just Tulsi Gabbard at this point, but there’s a reason she’s going to be in charge of foreign intelligence and it’s not for our benefit).
Don’t forget the rapists.
You’re also missing a major part, donorship. These picks aren’t incompetence as it looks at first glance. They’re deliberately picked for regulatory capture. They’re going to burn it down from three inside.
Look at Dr. Oz. He got picked because of his wife’s family, the Asplundhs. They’re going to fuck up healthcare far worse than you expect.
Tulsi is also category 1
Oh hey, surprised devoss didn’t buy it again. I assume McMahon’s platform is more concussions for children
Burn it to the ground.
Sure, whatever.
At this point, I frankly don’t even really care anymore.
Does the USA just let anyone become in charge of large areas of the country? Like you don’t need to be an elected official or anything?
There is Senate confirmation. But there is talk of Trump pressuring the Senate to adjourn so his nominations can be rammed through as “recess appointments”. Then we’d really be in rubber stamp legislature autocracy territory
The President and Legislature are elected at the federal level. All the various major executive branch figures below that are appointed by the President, and at best require the Senate to approve them. Most aren’t as ridiculous in their picks as Trump, but he’s a narcissistic megalomaniacal buffoon so he has to ensure to himself that’s he’s surrounded with people who are well known and popular (hence why he seems to be mostly picking based on media experience rather than anything pertinent, save a couple of Project 2025 authors and Tulsi Gabbard) but that he can see himself as above and will stroke his ego by affirming that.
Elected? You don’t even need to be qualified. Or even sane.
This position of the president’s cabinet, so the only requirement is to be appointed by the president. We elected a scummy mafia-adjacent businessman, and he’s appointing the other mafia-adjacent scum he owes favors to.
Selected by the president, but also approved by the senate.
True, but in this Trump-taint-licking time, the Senate isn’t going to object to anyone
I think this is the least egregious of all the cabinet picks.
They are on track to bankrupt The Onion
That’s their game plan to prevent the Onion from purchasing the infowars domain
LET’S GET READY TO CRUMBLEEEE!!!
TRUMP SLAMS LINDA INTO THE EDUCATION SECRETARY POSITION.
In case anyone thought Trump didn’t stick to the “predator nominee” picks.
Exactly, predators protecting predators. I wish Stone Cold would have done his stunner a bit stiff and maybe we could have avoided this timeline altogether.
Second biggest individual doner for trump… Interesting.
