Insightful comment on Trump's selection of Ben Carson as secretary of HUD

The moment I saw a real estate developer nominated Dr Ben Carson as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development I knew he wasn't picking anyone for their skills.

In 70 years surrounded by real estate developers you didn't meet a single person more qualified for the job, Donnie?

Classic example of rewarding the cronies for the consistent boot-licking.

Nevada starting the march left.

The state assembly turned blue, Cortez-Masto took Reid's seat against a full on attack from the Koch brothers.

And they got a Senate and Governorship they might both go blue if turnout is decent.

Only reason the Republican governor is popular is because he is a moderate.

The Mexican community putting da team on their backs.

 

[whywesteppin]

boot licking? i think Carson is licking something else.

Forget calexit I just want NYC to secede from ny state and become its own state. we don't need the north they need us.

Sub out the right words and you sound like a southerner at a certain time period

On the real, we keep the rest of the state around for the land. They ain't ever really stop is from doing anything. We out number them like 10 to 1.

Chicanos doing all the work but privileged whites folk get all the credit, it wouldn't be the first time. In the unlikely chance that we get a #Calexit, I want Nevada to join Oregon and Washington along with California.

We can run a high speed rail across Canada and join New England and New York.

 

[cash money 1999]

It would be a win-win situation because many supporters of The Bigot would get their wish:

So everyone would be happy because the economically backwards hillbilly bigotry of the south would finally get their confederacy.

 

[whywesteppin]

trump drunk tweeting again.

since he and his supporters told us before that the election may be rigged, they should fully support the recount efforts.

@politico: Ingraham wants to be more than just Trump’s flack http://politi.co/2gtF4la | Getty

So right wing conspiracy peddling, radio talk show hosts are now qualified for WH positions dealing with policy?

Next up Rush Limbaugh's gonna want to be in charge of immigration

 

[ryda421]

says da NT's very own racial huckster

ive never seen someone so obsessed with skin that wasn't a nazi, ur like da da bizzaro Alt left.

as for da recount, its just sour grapes...

Trump's Presidency is here..

damn :x da da ?

either way, for some one who denies their african roots, you should be no one to say someone else is obsessed with skin color. you truly do what to be non black, so i'm not really sure how you are not a person that doesn't fall under the category of skin pigmentation.

Y'all know if you cut off the South and they keep their current population, the country would actually be a lot LESS diverse, right?

Obama loves to talk about the right side of history but when castro dies he says "history will record and judge the enormous impact of this singular figure on the people and world around him"

Hmm... Pretty kind words. Definitely ambiguous at least.

I was at a nice restaurant last night listening to rich folks rejoicing/chuckling over size of tax cuts they'll get in the name of populism.

Some people in for some buyers remorse.

lol That is why I dig my President so much! What he is really saying without offending anyone is, " I have access to all of Castro's FBI and CIA files, know of all of his movements, and when I do not look at them through a white imperialists perspective, Fidel was not that bad of a guy, but I could see why white people disliked him. He didn't bow down." On top of that, you have the incoming President lauding Putin. So much for communists being the enemy...[emoji]128064[/emoji]
