I guess every administration needs a Designated Survivorā¦
Ben is certainly qualified. Heās lived in a house.
Sorry, but Carson is Looney Tunes and that doesnāt qualify a person for a cabinet position!
He literally knows nothing about housing policyā¦
Just goes to show that NO ONE wants to work for Trump.
Well, if you want a department to fail then putting someone with no experience in either management of the work of the department is a good idea.
If you actually care about proper housing and urban development there are almost 300M better choices.
No one wants to work for himā¦the good news is there are plenty of career civil servants at HUD who actually know how things work.
Black person + lived in city = qualified for HUD Director. Success!
āOffer to serveā could mean that that person needs a new valet, Ben.
Oh good lordā¦Youāve finally found a ājobā you think you can handle Ben? Why not Surgeon General?
Thus coining a new term: āNarcoleptocracy.ā
Carson being the Coy Mistress?
Ya know, at this point, considering the odious alternatives, Iād be down with Ben as Secretary of State. Although, Iād run the risk of dislocated eyebrows.
Wow !! Weāll soon be able to say, āHeck of a job Bennie!ā
Heās lived in a house. With Jesus! In bathrobes!!
Carson is a buffoon. I donāt know why anyone would be willing to offer him any job in government.
An URBAN house, even! Eminently quaified!
So whatās the problem? Heās African American, and we want a more diverse cabinet, right?
Or, as Sanders recently suggested (in his actual remarks, not the TPM/DKos interpretation of those remarks) - should we look past his āidentityā and judge Carson on his full body of work?
I anxiously await an answer.
Are you being sarcastic? He has absolutely no background in housing policy, urban development, or even managing a large agency. His āfull body of workā isnāt even tangentially related to housing or anything that HUD does. Itās insulting to anyone who works in housing to put forth a man because the Trump camp sees āUrbanā in the name and goes to the only black guy they know.
No sarcasm here. Iām totally serious, because right now on TPM that dishonest piece about Sanders āurging his supporters to ditch identity politicsā is on the āmost popular listā.
Based upon your answer, it appears you agree with what Sanders said in his FULL REMARKS, not those which were cherry-picked to fit the TPM narrative. THAT is my point.
