    If Trump's plan was to divide and weaken America, he's on course to succeed. I think we are about to witness the govt equivalent of Trump's bankrupt businesses. This is a shitshow.

    You've been fooled again by right wing misinformation, Bill. This is the Secretary of HHS since 2021:

    It appears that the current HHS Secretary is also a lawyer. To me, that seems like appointing a medical doctor to head the Attorney General's office. I guess it just goes to show that I know nothing about what the Secretary of HHS does day to day.

    I don’t think Trump intends any of these picks as sacrificial lambs. I think he was dead serious about recess appointments. This is Trump’s last go. He’s not playing around.

    i think he really likes kennedy and wants him approved. Gaetz, well he wants someone willing to go to extremes and he is too disconnected to see how much pushback he would get.

    Yeah, at this rate most of Trump's cabinet picks would be 'sacrificial lambs' under that theory. RFKJr, Gaetz, Hegseth, and Gabbard are all insane picks. They can't all be sacrificial lambs. No, Trump is expecting recess appointments. Will be interesting to see if Thune gives them to him.

    can you imagine the mass hsyteria and resignation letters/job searches going on at some of these agencies about now. they aren't going to have to worry about firing people, all the good ones are going to say i'm out. that may be the real damage is the mass exodus of qualified technically proficient people across all agencies

    he honestly believes he has a mandate to whatever the heck he wants to do and nobody should say no.....

    can't wait for the first illegal order to be issued to the military and see what kind of constitutional crisis that creates when a general/admiral etc refuses a direct order and the waay djt is so unhinged with retribution at this point I can see it happening. don't think they are going to fire tear gas and assault protesters this time.

    The p2025 folks would love to provoke protests, then unleash the military on them. If that happens, we truly are done as a country.

    I know. We need Big Pharma to help keep us drugged and united. How does Trump expect the country to unite if pharmaceutical companies have liability??!?
