Im not sure the New York Post has yet made it to @bsky.app so worth posting this opinion piece slamming the latest cabinet picks - from a hugely invested/ Trump friendly paper

It seems that maybe the US is having buyers remorse... also have a look at the amount of people what had their vote chucked out.. a lot of my US friends in swing states have had this experience.. way more than normal.
I mean, were they not aware that this circus was the likely outcome if the candidate they *wholeheartedly supported*, won? As he has. No good for them to have buyers remorse now. They’re complicit, and that stain will never wash off
OK, but look at the advantage of having Matt Gaetz as AG. He will be SUPER loyal, not just out of conviction but because were he to be fired his successor might then credibly turn their attention on Matt himself. He has much to lose.
When I say advantage I obviously don’t mean for the public good.
Aren't Trumps nominations based on loyalty rather than ability or even in these cases, suitability? Is Trump not testing the Senate, who must approve these picks, to see who amongst his Republican colleagues are loyal to him? unequivocally.
We can only hope he continues to be completely incompetent for the next 4 years. You need to be intelligent to be an effective fascist. Trump is a moron
What did they expect, all of this was clearly signalled before the election!
The Trump doesn’t mean it nonsense is going to come back to bite a lot of institutions and voters…
More irritating and heartbreaking than the loyalists are the Republican voters and supporters who thought he’d only change the stuff that would benefit them. Eg reduce taxes. If you listened to what he actually said NONE of his appointments are a surprise.
The entire cabinet is a joke. It's just a US version of the Russian oligarchy. I mean, there is a huge conflict of interest in there, just looking at Musk. And then there's the issue regarding safety, when it comes to RFK Jr. Then there's that news anchor... wtf? But hey, enjoy, they voted for it. 😂
I’ve left Twitter to distance myself from the kind of divisive and triggering content this reminds me of. I’m here to engage in more constructive, thoughtful conversations, so I kindly ask you not to bring that energy into this space. Thanks for understanding! ❤️❤️
Wow. There's a definite irony on your chosen handle.
Debate of opinions/news/...anything, is healthy when conducted without the abuse. That will be the difference between Bluesky and Musk's carnage creation.
Aw, thank you! Mental health is so important, especially in spaces where fake news spreads like wildfire. A platform that prioritizes facts and respectful dialogue can really help people feel safe and informed. Here’s hoping Bluesky sets that example! ❤️

Isn't there some kind of saying about unintended consequences?

I’m flying out there for thanksgiving next week so should be fun chat around the dining table
But no I mean who’d be crazy enough to do that.
…like the best of vintages, you get better with age! 😉
