that's exactly right.

No counter arguments, subject matter expertise, or career focus required... just do whatever Trump feels in the moment.   The good news for them: everything will be about destruction.  No planning or delivery required.

I don't wish for any of these appointees. They are a case study in bad people implementing bad policy for the wrong reasons/personal gain.  But this is what the people voted for - and say they want. So let's see who is really in the club. Let's burn it all down (as Kurt likes to say), and see who is really dependent on the state for support. Let's see how the small government types do with a broken government. 

I hope Newsome and a few others can really find a way to protect his domain from the Feds, but I'm not confident. It would be nice to have a control group. We've been on this path for a long time (maybe always?). Let's stop playing at the margins and really get it out in the open.  You want a broken union, well okay. Let's just hope that the other side manages to protect a few that need it. And in a couple years we can see if anyone is interested in a correction if it's still possible.

Careful what you wish for. Gaetz is a lot smarter than he gets credit for, and than his personal behavior would indicate. He would have a few axes to grind and a free hand to wage lawfare on his (and, of course, Trump's) enemies.

Honestly may be the best possible end to this tale.

It might be more entertaining if Musk didn't happen to run a satellite communications company and another with rockets... both incubated and supported by the US and its taxpayers... while having a direct line to Putin and other world leaders.

Elon hasn't exhibited a sense of humor in the past.

PLUS Trump doesn't like being second, so expect him to go after 1) the richest man in the world and 2) a genius. That man is Elon Musk. T won't be able to tolerate being in a room where someone else is the bigger dog. Pull up a chair.

OK, so now the Gaetz thing makes sense.

1) Nominate him for AG
2) He resigns his post TWO DAYS before the investigation into his underage sex and illicit drug use is made public
3) He escapes that humiliation
4) Not approved to be AG, of course, but has dodged a significant political and judicial bullet
5) Make American pedophiles great again!

Also: eased him out of Congress so he can start his career as a podcaster where he will embarrass no one but himself and the few guests he can convince to go on his show. No need for Republicans to publicly side with him (alienating parents of teenage girls) or vote against him (alienating MAGA).
