Discussion: Trump Chooses Gen. John F. Kelly To Lead Department Of Homeland Security

At least we know who is in charge here. When he gets them one on one, he will push them around just like he worked over the president of Mexico, and that pastor in Flint, and …

uh oh …

Asked why Trump is selecting so many generals to fill top posts in his administration, Sen. John McCain said “because they’re the most qualified.”

Fellow Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham said he would weigh each nominee as an individual.

“We live in very unusual times and the next president will need experienced hands in terms of how you defend the homeland, and having a general officer where that was part of his job is helpful,” Graham said.


Anyone?

I didn’t think for one second that they would close it.

But now I am wondering if I’m going to wind up there. This is very dispiriting.

He could even have the blind trust babies build a Coliseum.

Well ‘Senator Cranky’ is all for it.

My ‘burr’ is that Kelly might be receptive to a Muslim registry.

More importantly, he might be keen to bringing back W’s.

It’s entirely possible. I don’t put anything past them right now. I am expecting the worst and so far I’ve been joylessly correct.

Yes I know you have an Adam Sandler phobia. :joy:

“Kelly is the third general tapped for the highest levels of Trump’s administration”

One of the hallmarks of Fascism is an obsession with the Military and the delusion that ONLY “Military Men” can “save” the country and Trump continues down the path of Fascism.

Sinclair Lewis: “When Fascism comes to America it will come wrapped in the Flag and carrying a Cross.”

Always remember, Hillary is the supposed globalist, not Trump.

Not to worry. Donald knows more then these Generals.

Oh he realizes, he just DOESN’T CARE.
He thinks if he surrounds himself with enough Military Men the rest of the world will forget about what a coward he is.
Dream On Orange ShitGibbon.

But where would they get the slaves to build it? And they better not be bringing those brown and black people…

OK, looking at his fruit salad he started off as a green grunt with lots of shooting iron. Most of the remainder were “I was there” medals. He does appear to have administration experience, so that’s nice. Doesn’t show any Intel slots he commanded. Had a son killed in Afghanistan, other son a Marine Major. Definitely not the worst possible.

So do we end up seeing martial law on our own soil before the next war OR will we see the next war before martial law on our own soil? Anyone want to place bets?

So what constituted being on W’s registry? Would it be one’s name, color of one’s skin, what one wears, or what?

There’s a trend here I’m not liking too much. Nothing specific mind you, but in a General sort of way.

All cabinet chiefs must go before a Senatorial committee with the exception of the National Security Advisor.
