Matt Gaetz Attorney General! Not even mad! Cackling like a maniac. Nothing matters. Let it burn. The country will be a neverending Miss Teen Universe contest by August.

I'll call it now - this administration will not be able to govern. Too many incompetents and power mad oligarchs to be functional. The states will inevitably become more autonomous, and it may get to the point where the military intervene to ensure stability.
Agree. There is a real chance that by 2026 it’s such a shit show that they lose the House and Senate (no I didn’t actually look at what seats are up). There were a lot of folks that hate him but voted for him. The leash with those folks will be short.
What you are referencing turns out to be BS. The supposed site has no record of him, the person pushing the story was indicted for extortion and the FBI dropped all charges. The rule of law doesn't matter I guess. Perpetuating lies in an echo chamber for endorphin hits is so exhilarating. How brave!
Given that my primary hope for mitigating Trump's worse intent is that the people he appoints will be completely incompetent, things are looking up today.
Part of me is glad I loaded up my backlog of books, games, and craft projects. I also just want to scream, "LET 'EM FIGHT!", a la Babs from Making the Band.
Like Hegseth they might dislike for being unqualified, but they fuckin *hate* Gaetz because they have to deal with him every day. It's a personal, visceral sort of hatred
He’s not a particularly smart person nor a particularly competent lawyer, so it seems like the AAGs could really just lead him around by the nose until Trump inevitably gets bored with him
The chaos is the only thing stopping us from the abyss. These people can’t/wont do these jobs well and if they do, he will shit can them. The only thing left to do is get the popcorn.
Matt Gatez orchestrated the firing of his last republican boss (McCarthy) to the significant detriment of his party, so he's not exactly known for putting party over self. Or country over self. Or anything over self, really.
Can't fight corruption with con tricks
They use the law to commit crime
I dread (Dread) to think what the future'll bring

I hope Trump supporters get what they voted for. If the institutions survive it would all but guarantee a clean sweep in the midterms and next presidential election.
On the bright side, that's 4 house seats now re-opened. All safe red districts, but if we can get enough pissed-off democrats to turn out and vote, maybe...
Not even kidding, I already predicted there will be miss teen America pageants held at the White House. Maybe monthly. All the prettiest mid-teen girls from all over America! They can stay at the White House for easy access.
Twitter X suspended my account permanently because I criticized Musk buying votes for a million dollars a day to elect Trump. Was Elon Musk fighting with the Brazilian Supreme Court demanding the right to freedom of expression on Twitter X itself, or is this right only valid for Elon Musk?
I was almost expecting it would go to Ken Paxton, who is just as evil as Gaetz, but would have been more competent to inflict maximum damage from the office.
just can't imagine those two running down the halls of congress competing on who can grab the most women by their pussies.... matt will need to compete at the high school level
Attorney in my office did the same yesterday—came in my office, in, shut the door, cackled like a maniac. Then said, “We’re not gonna survive, are we?” Then cackled some more 😆
Were the US a parliamentary system, we could predict an incoming Trump government to lose a vote of confidence hence office within a year: these Cabinet picks evince no interest in the work of governing. Instead, expect massive dysfunction for 4 years, courting risk of something akin to a coup.
I’ve been saying the same. After 10 years and literal flashcards to help these idiots vote and here we are. I’m sitting back and watching it ALL burn… This is one of those “powerless” moments the Serenity prayer mentions….
I should be bothered by the unqualified yes men being installed in “acting” positions, but then I remember this is the best Trump can get anyway. No one of integrity is looking to post up in this administration.

It will be called Groundhog Day, The Trump Years.
The Talibangelical / #GOP Way.
This still has to get thru the Senate.
THIS is why we still need the filibuster.

no really i thought you were joking
‘Kakistocracy’ is not a word I’ve heard much in the last 4 years. I guess people are going to be wearing it out over the next few, though.
GOP keeps the House.
We're fucked.
that can't be real. Then I checked. WTAF!

Make it make sense.
Let. It. Burn.
Gaetz is the perfect pick to defend women right?
So, a man find liable for rape wants to appoint a sex trafficker as the AG?
People who voted Trump, you own this.
Mood for the foreseeable future!
Wait! The Boebert one is still a joke, right?
