So, obviously, tfg's using ambassadorships to reward his friends for their fealty. It doesn't matter that they have zero qualifications for the job. But, then again, nobody in his proposed administration is qualified for the job.
President-elect. We have a president.
Burnett might be the person most responsible for inventing the myth of Donald Trump as a successful businessman and fooling most Americans.
Trump (not President) is appointing unqualified people to represent the US in other countries. I wonder how the delicate business of diplomacy will circumvent incompetence and ignorance. I wonder how important consular services will fare under idiots at the helm in our embassies.
Thank you for not using his likeness and just posting the statement. How I wish more people would understand that doing so amplifies him, pleases him and pleases his sycophants.
Oh for ..... "most notably" he's in infotainment, like most of these unqualified nutcases DT has nominated. How many IOU's are being cashed in for these positions? So weary.
Well I wonder what these governments will be thinking when these asshats touch down in their countries. Greece, Bahamas, the UK, etc. They have to going “What the fuck have we done to deserve this”?

I'm sure the Royal Family will be able to stifle their laughter, just as they did when Trump showed up to a formal state dinner dressed as a cartoon penguin.
Producing tv shows? I know some strawberry pickers and chicken pluckers that understand the problems dealing with US immigration, I hope douche can find a great leadership position for them.
He was the producer of The Apprentice, which sold America the fiction that Donald Trump was a business genius. He knew the truth, and sat on embarrassing footage.
The President-elect thinks he's already President, and I've never seen any of those shows, although they seem like the kind of fakery that's supposed to be "real," so that's very in-tune with the Trumpian Pose.
If we're gonna have game show hosts being elected to high office who'll then be nominating their television producers into powerful political positions, I really wish we'd've gotten this right in the Eighties and elected Richard Dawson. How cool would it be, to watch the bombs dropping, and then...
“I feel compelled to clarify a few points. I am not now and have never been a supporter of Donald Trump’s candidacy. I am NOT “Pro-Trump,” Burnett said. “Further, my wife and I reject the hatred, division and misogyny that has been a very unfortunate part of his campaign.” circa Oct 12, 2016
Trump has always been obsessed with being on TV. It's why he can't stop violating the prime rule of being interviewed, which is to not look at the camera. He's mesmerized by the lens because it's the only way he assures himself he's actually real.
He keeps nominating people wholly unqualified for powerful positions-favors returned! The chumps who voted for him will only ‘get it’ when they see how it affects them personally.
The Depression generation was told "the only thing you have to fear is fear itself." This generation knows pretty well who to fear and their names are Musk and Trump. We're about 3 weeks out from the inauguration and the start of the transfer of the nation's wealth into the coffers of these two men.
"Mark Burnett is the TV producer that made me feel better about myself and portrayed me as a business genius after I had declared bankruptcy a third time and was billions in debt while the show was running."
(For the people not following ice-hockey, Selänne is a Finnish Hall of Fame player who was naturalized American a couple of years ago, has been a vocal Trump supporter and even golfed with The Man.)
I blame Burnett for a lot of our current ills. Eternal anything is too much, but maybe put him in the Clockwork Orange chair to watch 6 months of what he seeded in reality teevee land.
“To be clear, as previously reported in the press, which Mark Burnett has confirmed, he has consistently supported Democratic campaigns.”

I believe he was under legal obligation not to speak ill of the fraudulent business genius he led people to think trump was , just rewarding him for further silence.
Mark Burnett your a con man who helped President CROOKTRUMP to become the biggest conman in America that will be your Obituary the man Burnett helped to destroy America you must be so proud taking your 30 pieces of silver 🤔🤮🤮🤮
Well qualified. Responsible for some of the worst TV ever produced, I think. Never watch commercial tv, but for Trump, tv experience is far more important than political acumen. Is this what MAGA voted for?
ROTFL! "Unique?" "diplomatic acumen?" Question: which member of Vice President Trump's staff has to come in, look at his formal announcement, and put in words that he doesn't even know how to spell?
So the English guy, who invented "The Apprentice" is being appointed to the Court of St. James. Mark Burnett doesn't just look good on TV, he is the one who made Trump look good on TV.
trump didn’t write that. Too many words used correctly; not off use of capital letters & punctuation. He couldn’t spell acumen never mind what it means.
Burnett gets the post—no relevant qualifications required—since he helped trump make lots of money & become a national name. Thanks Mark.
The outcry has grown to the point where Mr. Burnett...felt compelled...to issue a forceful denunciation of Mr. Trump’s presidential bid, saying he rejected “the hatred, division and misogyny that has been a very unfortunate part of his campaign.”
We The People are paying off each and every one oftrump's accomplices.
Yea, We are.
All his yes-men and women -
all his relatives -
wait for jared and ivanky to get plum jobs that we will pay them for too.
And everywhere these bootlickers land-
trump will charge them with pullingstrings: hotels!
Not a clue. My guess is to simply pay off Burnett. There is no real reason and I can’t imagine that Number 10 is going to receive him. Or they might appoint a Special Envoy to the US and that would be hysterical.
God help us if his brief includes N. Ireland. Wonder who the actual ambassador will be and how much they'll hate having that chucklefuck sticking his nose in things.
The presidency is nothing but another entertainment opportunity for him: The Apprentice, part 2. How is this America, folks? How does someone like this get elected as POTUS? I really feel like I am living in an alternate reality, the Twilight Zone.
I know "kakistocracy" is gov't by the least capable, but what term is there for gov't by the most dishonest of us? Because that absolutely is a term we need to use more often in the next four years
Will they make for good fodder, these appointments are actually very troublesome for the Country. We are putting our policies and wellbeing in the hands of people who are not qualified in anyway for these positions.
Burnett made trump seem palatable to a lot of people instead of the joke everyone knew him to be. You'd think he'd be hiding in shame for what he helped to create.

You can toss a frisbee and hit one. That pretty much sums up Trump's Administration.
If you're anywhere near a camera, you're in.
until Jan 20.
Just FYI, that was extremely heavy British sarcasm. 😈
Trump sues Des Moines Register for cancelling his subscription while GOP wants to cancel Liz Cheney for investigating Trump.

Did I miss the timing of the inauguration?
And here I thought Joe Biden was President.

Did Trump sexually assault Mark Burnett?
Fucking.
Wrong.

The rot is deep.
I hope they eat him alive, even if it disadvantages America.
(Also, Burnett would be 'special envoy' which is weird; Trump earlier named some other billionaire to be ambo.)
That wasn't a lie.
That propping up the fringe lunatic was a good idea?
Maybe so.
