It's not that I think he's incompetent. Civilian control of the military is there for a reason. My dad was in the US Army for 27 years, twice awarded the Bronze star, and I know this is something he felt very strongly.

this way they will be able to control future generations of children by dumb ing them down to a easily manageable level. Scary thing is she has the money to buy her way into that position.

He's actively suing the EPA (department he's going to head) to allow more Mercury emissions by refineries. WTF!?!?!?!!?

But Jefferson Beauregard Sessions will be in a position to do the most damage. By far.

Or I couldn't figure it out. Very difficult for me to pick the MOST deplorable, because they all pretty much stink, as in smell to high heaven with corruption. As a Texan, I would like to add that that Dr. Ernest Moniz, who heads the Dept of Energy, has a PhD in physics and is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences is being replaced by ex-Gov Rick Perry, who has a B.S. in Animal Husbandry from Texas A&M and is reputed to have made Cs and Ds in many of his science classes.

But he was also an Aggie Yell leader Texas A&M football games.

So much for Trump picking the "very best."
