Actually it isn’t what the majority of Americans want. But, since we have a completely ass backwards system of electing a President that makes some votes worth more than others........well here were are.

How’s this? I can’t take credit for this.
Justice Thiel’s opinion for the Supreme Court’s 21-4 decision will hold that filing suit against the president constitutes treason.
Oh, man, shoulda name-checked Fahrenthold/WaPo. It delights me to no end that Trump’s soon-to-be local paper sees right through him and is. not. having. it. Every other OpEd can be summed up as “this fuckin’ guy...”
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: it’s a good thing that his conflicts of interest aren’t over something truly sinister, like helping African children who have AIDS.
No. What he’s actually going to do is declare that he has no conflicts because America can trust him, and move on. Who’s going to stop him? Congress?
And his followers will let him. The new narrative I’m seeing emerge on the right is that the president is “immune” to conflicts of interest because reasons, therefore Trump doesn’t need to do a damn thing.
As far as I’m concerned, Kurt Eichenwald and David Farenthold were the only Real Journalists doing Actual Journalism this election, only to be mostly ignored by people and other media in favor of #omg!emails!
He has planets of evidence that we won’t. The GOP was supposed to stop this at the convention and nothing. The election itself was supposed to stop him and nothing. The recounts. Hell, some small naive part of me is still hoping for an electoral miracle even though I know it won’t happen. Everyone in a position to be…
Ha! But I can’t wait for the day your Trump-into-kitten filter posts this...
He also cancelled the press conference where he was going to tell us all about how he would deal with his conflicts of interest. He has no intention of removing the conflicts or finding an ethical way to manage them. He is setting up a kleptocracy and he thinks no one will stop him.
Tiffany: Shes not that hot. I dont know what dad sees in her.
Energy = Oil!
So for Department of the Interior, he’s likely to tab Ethan Allen?
The point isn’t necessarily that Rick Perry is unqualified—he is unqualified (for this and pretty much any other line of work more demanding than filling soft drink cups at a multiplex snack counter), but the appointment of unqualified party hacks to cabinet positions is just about the oldest tradition in American…
Simple. What the DoE does is inconsequential to most on the right. It was founded during the Carter administration, so it is bad.
This could lead a casual observer to believe, incorrectly, that the department’s primary function has to do with the production of fossil fuels, like oil.
“I thought I was turning the microwave on”
Trump just put forth a person to lead this department who has openly advocated for the shuttering of said department.
“Rick Perry, Trump’s expected pick for Sec. of Energy, famously forgot he wanted to abolish the energy department in a 2011 debate.”
