He is a consummate political networker and his appointment will be seen by supporters as a masterstroke.

Hopefully the Brits don’t tell him sh!t

But Ambassadors have to be approved by the Senate. Special Envoys do not. Probably no FBI background check either.

So Trump is handing out meaningless jobs to friends as favors.

Which is corruption.

Can’t wait to see how he’s received by the Brits. Should be hilarious

Too many donors, not enough ambassador seats.

And the taxpayers get to pay a salary for this totally made up position. How about Elon cuts this job as per his “efficiency” efforts.

Do we need any more proof the guy is struggling with reality?

Methinks this is a desperate attempt to ensure they keep sharing intel with us after he clearly sold secrets last time.

Does his boss Musk know he’s making up positions that presumably will cost money.

booradleysgirl.bsky.social•71 days ago

His arrival, probably.

I think this is a fantastic idea. Just think of the tv program ideas this bloke will come back with. Mind you the English politicians will eat him alive, but I’m sure the show ratings will be great. #USAbest3rdworldcountry$canbuy

Well, we don't know how much intelligence will actually be shared but be that as it may....I think Burnett's function will be more like an official position for laundering...or gossip.
