Cohn would have been a badd pick to run CIA, but he ultimately did not make the cut because he is not the worst possible pick as per usual trump M.O.
Having somebody wholly unqualified running the CIA is actually a touch better than having a qualified but known torturer running the CIA.
Nicely played, Cohn. Trump likes demonstrating that everyone has his or her price, and you certainly proved it true where you’re concerned. You think about leaving after Charlottesville, but don’t, then you walk out over tariffs but offer to walk back in for another big job? Pfft. Attention junkies, they’re pathetic. If you can’t sacrifice that or anything else you need to sacrifice, if you can’t walk away and stay away, then you do, in fact, always have a price you can be bought for.
Cher from Clueless put more thought into her daily wardrobe than BLOATUS does into running the executive branch.
OT but have you seen this shit ! Jim Carrey - my new favorite artist. Talk about grabbing the essence!
No surprise. WH insiders also confide Ivanka at one time was in line for head of NASA and Jared Kushner was slated as Prime Minister of Germany, once Facebook took Merkel down.
For billionaires, these people aren’t very bright. It’s about dominance. It’s the exact same stunt Trump pulled with Mitt Romney. You don’t leave him, he leaves you. Either that or Putin decided he didn’t want Cohn as CIA Director.
Smegheads Dr still hasnt got his meds right .
Cohn has zero experience in or with the IC. That would have made him a perfect choice in Trumplandia.
On the bright side, Trump hasn’t considered any horses for the job
Yet.
Reportedly.
I don’t remember where I first saw this mentioned, but Trump sees cabinet secretaries the way most presidents see plum-but-noncritical ambassadorships. Something to offer to one of your best buds who is at least minimally competent and stable. Like, hey, why NOT offer to make Gary Cohn the US Ambassador to Lichtenstein? What’s the worst that could happen?
Except oh I dunno the head of the CIA actually has real, serious, critical shit to do every day.
Nah. The CIA is trying to frame Trump for crimes (see: Joseph diGenova), so Trump would prefer someone like Frank, the Trump Tower doorman, to anyone competent.*

I’m guessing Director of Prisons. 
Trump is a 4 yr old with 10 stuffed animals and everyday he gives them new roles in his pageant. And when he’s furious he throws one across the room.
No, it’s more like an intricate puzzle made up of interchangeable parts. After a few stumbles, Trump now says he is close to getting the Cabinet he wants:
I’m sure there is someone over on FOX that is up for the job!
Completely unqualified, but qualification for the job was never a priority for Trump.
I get the Caligula reference.
Saw the one of Many Hamhock but not the other one. Thanks for posting
Captured him perfectly
