As an European, these names don't say a lot to me but from the reaction here I assume it is bad

 

[darkwing]

Ben Carson
Education

good luck America

 

[Ac30]

Yes, the Senate must confirm nominees. Since Republicans will control the Senate, you have to hope there are at least some moderating forces on their side, or that they don't nuke the filibuster and Democrats stop any of the egregious nominees.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck let's hope there's at least a couple of R senators that believe in Climate Change...

A man can dream.

 

[Kickz]

I don't know half these people, all I ask is please don't let that ghoul Rudy Giuliani have a position...

 

[surrogate]

I like Chris Christie, not sure about the rest of them

Obviously, you don't live in NJ. If you did, you would know what a POS he is.

 

[Plasticine]

What about ol' Lyin' Ted? What's his place in all this?

The Supreme Court, of course.

 

[greatgeek]

What about ol' Lyin' Ted? What's his place in all this?

AppoinTED to the Supreme Court.

 

[LifEndz]

"Sheriff Joe" terrorizing brown people as head of the Dept of Homeland Security is going to be the stuff of nightmares.

But hey, unity, tolerance, give him a chance, etc, etc.

 

[Trouble]

I never thought I would say this but...

I hope Chris Christie becomes Attorney General.

At least he hasn't shown the virulent racism that Giuliani has. Or at least I'm not aware of it if he has.

 

[Kusagari]

Obviously, you don't live in NJ. If you did, you would know what a POS he is.

Compared to the rest of these guys he's at least sane.

 

[Mr. Giggles]

Dude....

Are you fucking kidding me?

 

[Four_Chamber]

Of all those horrible people, Chris Christie would be the least bad AG. At least he's shown that he doesn't hate Muslims

 

[Jawbreaker]

 

[Waldo Lydecker]

Moderate Republicans like Flake, Kasich etc etc... what are they thinking right now, what will they do in the coming years, how will they vote the coming years?

How does the future of the Republican Party look like?

 

[GitarooMan]

Here is just one of Ben Carson's many gems (this was a tweet) that indicate his suitability for Secretary of Education, there are hundreds more:

It is important to remember that amateurs built the Ark and it was the professionals that built the Titanic.

 

[Plasticine]

I never thought I would say this but...

Maybe not. But he's ready and willing to use the power of his office to fuck his political opponents over. I'm sure that trait would work out well for the Attorney General.

 

[Wilsongt]

A cabinet full of fucking deplorables.

The only people not fucked are straight, rich, white, Christian men.

Back to the 1700s we go.

 

[Snowybreak]

As an European, these names don't say a lot to me but from the reaction here I assume it is bad

It's like looking at a list of examples of who NOT to put into each position.

 

[Elginer]

Bingo. Let's go to space. Fuck this shit!

 

[Extra Sauce]

 

[Nanashrew]

Take me Elon Musk. I want to go to Mars right now.

 

[BladeoftheImmortal]

Because good people did nothing

Wrong, more people voted for Hilary

 

[Toxi]

Fucking Voldemort for Health and Human Services.

 

[darkwing-buck]

hahahahaha

Spoiler

kill me

[NyMartin90]

would Carson for surgeon general be a bad idea?

 

[Nobility]

As as outsider with some interest in American politics...

This list terrifies me to my core.

 

[GoldenEye 007]

If some of those people truly are on the list, then the unrest should continue.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

Hail Hydra.

 

[RCSI]

Oh, now I get it.
When Trump said "drain the swamp," he meant lawn care.

Drain the swamp to see what his transition team is pulling out. That's what it meant.

 

[Poona]

Man, really don't understand how the US could screw things up so badly.

Anyway why wasn't the interior secretary mentioned in the op? Would have saved me the heart attack I got when I clicked through. Can we please not let Sarah Palin back? I thought that was the end of her possible power when she didn't get in with John mccain. I can't really imagine her doing good for the environment (including wildlife). The other picks such as Harold Hamm and Forrest Lucas also seem like they could be related to Captain Planet villains.

EPA administration doesn't seem so bad though just as long as Myron Ebell doesn't get it. He seems a nightmare too, whilst the other two mentioned seem like they might be alright.

 

[Vigilant Walrus]

The Supreme Court, of course.

 

[Strike]

 

[Keasar]

I'm also European, but after following a lot of American politics, even I am afraid when reading these names. They are not good for -anyone- on this entire planet.

We are all fucked.

 

[Nabs]

Homeland Security Secretary

Joe Arpaio - Departing sheriff of Maricopa County, Ariz.

David A. Clarke Jr. - Milwaukee County sheriff

Fucked.

 

[Neoweee]

would Carson for surgeon general be a bad idea?

Absolutely no experience ever in management, at least, and a history of crackpot psuedo-science medical affiliations.

 

[WedgeX]

"Draining the swamp" is really apt since destruction of natural habitats will be par for the course the next four years.

Time for a Captain Planet reboot.

 

[Peyotl]

So I guess/hope the truly terrible names on the list are there, so that people will be glad/happy when the not-that-awful (but still terrible) ones are going to be picked?

 

[Kusagari]

Trump knows no political figures except the ones on this list.

 

[Bronx-Man]

Christie being named Attorney General is probably the only chance Black Lives Matter has of not being classified as a terrorist group by the FBI.

 

[fr0st]

Where's Chris Christie

 

[Protein]

Joe Arpaio might be the Homeland Security Secretary.

• Sued for racial profiling by the ACLU
• Multiple Department of Justice investigations
• Known for terrorizing and racial profiling both legal Hispanic citizens AND undocumented immigrants
• Investigated for cruel-and-unusual punishment of inmates, which include purposely feeding of rotten fruit, moldy bread, contaminated food, and denial of medical care.
• Federal grand inquiry on abuse of power
• Ignored or inadequately investigated more than 400 reported sex crimes
• Investigated for misuse of funds
• Purposefully targeted Hispanic/Latino neighborhoods




We're gonna fucking die.

 

[SoulUnison]

This isn't draining the swamp, it's just dredging up the bottom of it and giving the whole thing a casual stir.

 

[MANUELF]

US you did this to yourselves and the world I hope you are happy now

 

[Zukkoyaki]

Trump knows no political figures except the ones on this list.

This is true. Let's hope and pray that guys like McConnell will float some more rational choices... I can't believe I just typed that.

 

[Nanashrew]

Draining the swamp and creating a quagmire!

 

[Lovely Salsa]

Well, isnt this a good start to make america white again?

 

[ginger ninja]

 

[Woorloog]

Well, isnt this a good start to make america white again?

Oh, i just realized how Trump plans to combat climate change. By making America white, Earth's albedo increases and reflects more sunlight, so less will be trapped and Earth will cool down.

 

[Proelite]

Just make Christie head of everything. Christ.
