Yep, and conversely he goes above and beyond to reward loyalty to him. He's using cabinet positions as the "thank you". Most of these thank you gifts are going to woefully unqualified individuals. Devos as secretary of education?? Ben Carson leading HUD?? His stated qualification for the position is that he grew up in an urban area. lol
You just can't make this shit up.

I wasn't too concerned about trumps lack of experience thinking he would be smart enough to surround himself with qualified people.... But nope. Instead he's using these positions as tokens of his appreciation for anyone and everyone that stood by his side, no matter how unqualified they are for the job. The confirmation hearings is gonna be must watch TV. Get the dvr's ready!

Playing devils advocate here for a moment does he really have a choice in his cabinet picks? Democrats didn't support any of his rhetoric so he's not going to pick from "the other team". We all know he rewards loyalty and he also knows he's got to win over the Republican Party as a whole but God help those that apposed him during his campaign.

He'll keep on boasting that he won't go after Hillary the truth is it's not his decision to make.

OK, dimwit won the Electoral College vote, granted, but, and it's a very big but, as I write this his popular vote count means one thing, and that is as he starts his term, and hopefully his last, he is disliked (hated?) by 2 million more people than like him, and that doesn't bode well for his future. He wanted it, and now he got it, and just wait until his approval ratings start coming in. (can't wait to read his Tweets when that happens) That will be fun to watch, seeing that if SNL gets under his skin, just wait until he sees what the majority of people think of him. LOL

I was never a big Trump fan until towards the end. And then only because I live near a part of the country that depends on coal mining or the downstream jobs in energy it produces.

I work in an industry that does better when the coal mines are open. Trump means more money in my pocket.

I have loved loved loved the liberal butthurt since his election.

But I am a staunch defender of the electoral college system as someone who understands how much control the Amsterdam area has of Holland. It would be the same here. The two coasts would dominate. Fuck that.

As I said. We're protected from regional control. We best system in the world. It been polluted. Trump says he will drain the swamp. It's absurd that the capital is the wealthiest area of the country and not a coincidence.

The difference between me and you is I take Trump seriously but not literally. You take him literally but you and others never took him seriously.

I've always said, he will be one of the best or one of the worst presidents ever.

I didn't. It's not the kind of thing they teach in high school, probably because it's so embarrassing.

Yeah you right they don't teach black history at all well at least during the reconstruction era anyhow ther was a brief moment in history where the black man in the south was just as powerful as the white man ever wondered how we got so many black men in congress back in those days? Turned whitey into a fucking killing machine and burned that sucker to the ground I forgot where it was but I do remember how it to turned whitey into a monster.

i've never seen more people who were all wrong trying harder to tell each other how right they were and how wrong the other people were...we all chose a loser, no matter who we voted for. we were all losers, there was no way to win. this was the worst, most pathetic, most insulting excuse for a choice i've ever been presented, and i'm ashamed of both parties for nominating the foul pieces of shit they did

And yet, he PROMISED an investigative committee if he won.

PROMISED!

He's not even POTUS yet and everything's been back-peddled.

Aren't you the least bit disturbed by this?..this is worse than any pick to date.

Coal is not coming back..it's dirty energy.

He LIED to you.

You MAY expect $200 back in your taxes, if he doesn't renege on that too.

Of the two choices: worst president ever..no way he can be the best.

This does however prove that anyone can become president, though.
