For those too overwhelmed by Post-Trump Stress Disorder (PTSD) to stomach all the terrifyingly insane cabinet selections President-elect Trump has made for the incoming Fourth Reich, allow me to explain the simple formula: throw a dart at the name of someone as morally ambiguous and criminally unqualified as himself, as well as the complete and utter opposite of the very department in which they’re sworn to constitutionally and faithfully carry out for millions of Americans, and they’re hired!
As news was breaking of Lord Cheeto throwing a hissy fit over the startling CIA discovery of Russia’s election hack, even greater troublesome news was coming out Trump’s expected pick for Secretary of State.
It seems Trump decided to continue his theme of “draining the swamp” by selecting ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson. A man who’s not only a slimy wall street billionaire, but a close ally of Russian dictator President Vladimir Putin.
Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said during Fox News on Saturday that:
“I don’t know what Mr. Tillerson’s relationship with Vladimir Putin was, but I’ll tell you it is a matter of concern to me.“
Sen. McCain vacillates between having moments of clarity and being Grandpa Simpson. But much like anyone with a functioning brain cell and concern for the fate of American democracy, the longtime senator is more than justified in his fears and suspicions of this inconceivable selection.
Never before has it been more painfully obvious that the Trumpster intends on officially killing democracy, using the office of the presidency to further his sordid business interests. Moreover, playing a most dangerous game of quid pro quo with an autocratic regime.
