    Good point. that was an item he campaigned on. a child would leave for school, and come back a different sex. His quote below.
    (There is no evidence this is occurring)

    “your boy leaves for school, comes back a girl….when I was told that was actually happening, I said, you know, it’s an exaggeration. No: it happens. It happens. There are areas where it happens.”

    She's going to look pretty and say what someone tells her to say. I.E. The story of her life.

    Education should be a main stay, but I guess they feel like killing it instead of fixing it. But either way, education really should be a state's right's issue... unless you're teaching hatred of our country.

    Cannot speak for him but as far as Trump is concerned she's hot for a female politician and even more significantly there is a little doubt that she would be absolutely subservient to the Donald.

    She is a soft exterior to an underlying painful process. All hat no horse.

    He should have put Theo Von in charge. At least he could man child his way through it with jokes.

    Yes. Not my typical schtick. Will own it.

    I do not think she is qualified to be the DHS head based on the totality of her experience. I do hope she is successful. No one wants to see failure in DHS given it affects us all.

    OT: I am not a fan of Mayorkus. I think he was qualified running parts of DHS to make him qualified. He failed on the border and that is his albatross

    Just curious, but, other than having zero background in criminal justice and having no actual qualifications for the position, what attributes of hers do you feel makes here perfect for this role. Hating Hispanics, stereotyping Mexicans and Native Americans not withstanding of course??

    Maybe but Trump is very superficial and does believe that the appearance of female politicians matters. Remember what he said about Carly Fiorina in 2016.
    Donald Trump on Carly Fiorina: 'Look at that face!'

    Nailed it. Qualifications for Trump “meritocracy”.

    -Hating immigrants.
    -Subservience to Trump over the law
    -Spray tan.
