    Secretary Tillerson continues to lead the State Department

    I hope she used air quotes around “lead.” Just because you’re sitting in the pilot’s seat doesn’t mean you’re a qualified pilot.

    I also think it’s hilarious that the next secretary of state is going to be a former head of the CIA. I’m sure that’ll go a long way to making other countries trust us more.

    Like if I tried to imagine the most incompetent administration I could think of 2 years ago, I would’ve even have come close to the levels on display here.

    It’s almost like Trump has a room full of the smartest people in the country giving him excellent advice while he’s looking at pictures of teenage beauty pageants on his phone and then afterwards he says to a lackey ‘whatever they said in there, do the opposite.’

      On the news, “lead” is a word which has positive connotations, even if Pilot Tillerson leads the WH airliner straight down into a flaming fireball on the desert floor.

      Tangential: Who do you consider the smartest person advising Trump? I have a forty-way tie for last place.

      “It’s almost like Trump has a room full of the smartest people in the country giving him excellent advice ... “

      Hmmm. It might be like that in any other administration. But Trump has actually surrounded himself with people only marginally less dumb than he is. Listening to them would probably be better than going with whatever ideas he comes up with, but the results are still not likely to be great.

    So that’s why it seemed Trump was being kind, he was recruiting his next Secretary of State.

      Big mouth. Tiny hands. General orange hue.

      Are we sure Trump isn’t actually a T. Rex?

    I read several months ago that a lot of people would be high-tailin’ it out of the White House at the start of 2018. The story said most stayed because they wanted to at least get a year in to make it official and put it on their resume or something like that.

      What kind of jobs are they looking for where a stint under Trump is a plus? Brietbart and Fox News can’t have that many open positions for pundits.

      Don’t feel bad for Suckabee, she didn’t get caught torturing animals so you know that means she’s the smart one.

    “Sen. Tom Cotton, goofy Trump loving Arkansas Republican who would hold the president’s nut sack if asked nicely, would most likely be expected to take over the reigns at the CIA.”

    Well, that is definitely not good news. Tom Cotton is a scary sociopath. What could possibly go wrong with putting him in charge of the nation’s main intelligence agency?

    Also, sorry to be pedantic, but it’s “reins,” not “reigns.”

    Sen. Tom Cotton, the goofy, Trump-loving Arkansas Republican

    He is so, so, SO much more dangerous than that. Mark my words, should this all shake out and he makes it through Senate confirmation, we WILL be at war with Iran; he’s been trying to make this happen as 1 of 100 in the Senate for years, now.

    “Goofy” is underplaying this guy in a way we don’t need to.

    BTW, I heard it explained that he literally meant that Rex was in the White House.
