If the Devil were an American Republican - I haven’t seen that proven either way - Trump would nominate him for the Papacy.

No, Donny will do anything to keep Putin from outing him. Putin is the puppetmaster and Trump is Howdy Doody with bad hair.

If the CPS was a federal run agency, Trump would appoint Roy Moore to run it.

President Donald Trump is expected to tap David Malpass to lead the World Bank, despite the Treasury official’s documented conservative critiques of the institution

Despite–are you crazy? “Because of” would be more accurate.

Eh, as far as Trump’s Evangelical base is concearned the Pope already is the devil… and honestly I wouldn’t be suprised to see some right winger Catholics agree with them on that with regards to the current Pontiff.

The right wing of the RC church hates Pope Francis. Partly it’s Francis’ disposition and proposed changes. But Putin has a hand in it too.

Remember that JP II was instrumental in wrenching Poland free of the Eastern block. Putin is on a revenge mission about the break up of the Soviet Union. Tearing up the RC church is part of that, and it has many points of weakness right now.

There are conservative RC churches that feature homilies reviling Francis (“The ROT at the very top”) and praising Trump (“A defender of Life.”). I’ve heard them. It’s stunning.

So a World Bank critic may lead the World Bank.

Figures, given Trump’s Cabinet:

The Foreclosure King is Treasury Secretary

The Bankruptcy King heads Commerce,

The guy who said if elected President he would eliminate the Department of Energy now heads the Department of Energy

An billionaire heiress with no education degree, who never went to public school, whose children never went to public school, and who spent her life undermining the public education system, is Education Secretary

The original Attorney General spent his career attempting to thwart racial justice, was replaced by a man under FBI criminal investigation, and who in turn may be replaced by the man who helped President George HW Bush beat the rap on Iran-Contra – which quite possibly was an impeachable offense – and who is expected to help Trump escape justice over Mueller’s Trump-Russia investigation

The acting EPA Administrator is a longtime coal lobbyist, and replaced a man who had filed 13 lawsuits against the EPA

The acting Interior Secretary is a longtime oil lobbyist

Oh, and apparently Malpass was Chief Economic Advisor to Bear Stearns, whose collapse helped set off the Crash of 2008.

Only the best people …
