They shoulda just played The Ghost of Tom Joad for two hours.

Thats fucking hysterical

Christ.

she might actually be the worst of all the nominees

She is, and I would expect her to be able to have an outsized influence in comparison to some of the other cabinet secretaries. I sincerely doubt Trump has much opinion at all one way or the other regarding public education.

maybe he will grope her and that will lead to trump's impeachment

Some of these nominees will be blocked, right? Its not all just a dog and pony show? right? Like, the government still has some control over this bullshit?

This would require a few Republicans to vote against the Republican president's cabinet appointments. So, no.

The worse the better. Burn it down! Burn it all down!

How do stupid people get so wealthy?

Trump already plotting 2020 re-election (complete with slogan)

Halfway through his interview with The Washington Post, Trump shared a bit of news: He already has decided on his slogan for a reelection bid in 2020.

“Are you ready?” he said. “ ‘Keep America Great,’ exclamation point.”

“Get me my lawyer!” the president-elect shouted.

Two minutes later, one arrived.

Man I hate the USA Today website.

Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy, who represents Sandy Hook, the site of the 2012 school shooting, asked DeVos if she believes guns have "any place in and around schools."
"I think that is best left to locales and states to decide," she said.
After Murphy pushed DeVos about why she can't say definitively whether they belong, DeVos brought up a story Sen. Mike Enzi told earlier about a school in Wyoming that has fences around it to protect against grizzly bears.
"I will refer back to Sen. Enzi and the school he is talking about in Wyoming. I think probably there, I would imagine there is probably a gun in a school to protect from potential grizzlies," she said.

I think this woman is an imbecile, but a bear did get into Bozeman middle school hallways last year during school hours, so I can't totally fault her on this point.

Bear experts do seem to disagree, though: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/ani ... ed05e85556
