Is he putting both of them on? I didn’t know there were two spots and figured he’d dropped Moore because there was a lot of pushback on Moore because he’s so damn stupid.
Just as “Blazing Saddles” was the essential political subtext of the Obama Administration, so “Idiocracy” is to the Trump regime.
Kinda surprised that it isn’t Linda McMahon. Since she stepped down from the SBA, she could do a fine job wrestling with the economy. Put the interest rates in a FedLock.
Maybe two stupid guys is equivalent to one real economist ?
I don’t think so. It’s just double the stupid.
It’s just not that complicated. He most likely wants to put Herman Cain in at the Fed Board because he likes Herman Cain and figures that it somehow helps him with the blacks. PP doesn’t look to sow chaos. He IS chaos. Chaos is what follows a chaotic, syphilitic mind. He’s an incompetent ass with an extreme case of Dunning Kruger who thinks he knows absolutely everything because he’s been rewarded and praised for his ineptitude his entire life. He no doubt thinks this is a brilliant move and there’s literally no one in his orbit who will tell him any different.
I meant in Trump’s world …
Oh, it’ll be quite a dust up, because Herman isn’t a supply-sider, he’s a goldbug.
Both have always believed hyper-inflation is just around the corner and the Fed needs to jack interest rates up to 9% sooner rather than later, though, so they’ll have that to share. Notwithstanding Trump’s constant raging at the lack of dovishness.
O well I don’t know that he thinks along those lines. I don’t think he likes the Fed in the first place so I suspect he wants his people on there so he can manipulate the Fed himself.
I barely know a stock from a bond and I’ve vaguely heard T-bills go up when something else goes down but I guarantee I’d be better at this than him because I know what I don’t know and I’d hit the books. Cain’s just a big pompous idiot who doesn’t know a goddamn thing about anything and never seemed to want to learn more. Fucking Trump, I swear, this is like after the election when he wanted to put Stallone in charge of the NEA. Fucking cross between a Visigoth and a large farm animal, just a lummox and ignoramus. Yo Trump, why not have Eddie “Crazy Eddie” Antar too? Bankrupt fraudster just like you, known for the kitschy commercials, dead these past two years but I don’t see why that should stand in the way of naming him. Oh, and listen, Buttigieg, use that fine mind to help me understand better why I shouldn’t tell the Trump voters to go fuck themselves to death forever in hell.
Given that Republicans genuinely and unanimously appear to believe that HUD is the Bureau of Negro Affairs, and, for patronage purposes, the Separate but Equal counterpart to the Department of Commerce
Turkey Farm segregation academy, I’m really surprised Stacey doesn’t already have a job there.
Herman cain do what cain be done…
Tell us how ya really feel matty!
Git 'em!!!
The sad thing is, President Camacho was a fair bit smarter than the average citizen, and capable of rudimentary reasoning. So it was really an overly optimistic view of our trajectory.
I’ve spent a lifetime trying to understand and accept that there’s bad people in the world. There’s a vast literature on it, most lives are affected by it in some way. But why an advanced nation should be led by a pack of buffoons, that’s a new one on me and I don’t intend to get used to it. ![]()
Please leave the Visigoths out of this, as a Dane, I don’t think they deserve that.
Admitted, they broke a few things, but life was boring and they had some fun.
Coudn’t he just spring for Red Lobster state dinners instead of McDonalds?
The thing that cracks me up about this is that, as a former chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City (yeah I had a hard time believing it too), he is definitely more qualified than Stephen Moore. His history of harassment of female employees is just the icing on the cake, like Moore’s sorry history of welshing on child support.
Is this stuff supposed to be funny?
Now, Matt, don’t you go mincing words on us, hear?
Hey now, Crazy Eddie is an example of somebody who’s done an amazing job and is getting recognized more and more, I notice.
