President Trump shared his narrowed list of possible candidates to replace ousted National Security Adviser John Bolton with reporters aboard Air Force One on Tuesday evening. But most of the candidates are not as well-known as people who Trump tends to gravitate toward for administration posts.
Prediction: one of these people will soon become a ‘nobody’, who Trump ‘barely knew’ and was apparently ‘widely known to be a loser’, and whom Trump should be applauded for sacking and replacing with someone even more blinkeredly loyal.
Doesn’t matter who he picks, he won’t listen to them anyway
Seems like this is the guy who can pretty much shut the door and play solitaire on the computer for all it matters, because it doesn’t matter.
One thing we know for sure - actual expertise and ability to do the job will never be part of the decision-making “process”.
Why would we recognize anyone on this so-called short list? Sycophancy is the only qualification needed to work for this President and, personally, I can’t imagine who would want to work for him unless he was willing to sacrifice any ethical and moral boundaries in service to this man.
That hostage negotiator guy might come in handy Jan 20th, 2021.
Plus which every sane American is a hostage right now. Everyone in the world is.
The guy doesn’t even have a wikipedia page.
Is O’Brian the same hostage negotiator who argued for Warmbier’s release?
I dont know who he is, but if Trump picked him he has to be no good.
yea that’s him
“I have worked long and hard with Robert”
The Trump pick who is the hostage is his new DNI.
He’s doing things no DNI has ever done.
He has refused to turn over WhistleBlower info to Congress
He has refused to come to Congress to justify it.
ETTD
Trump remembers him because he was deployed to get hostage ASAP Rocky released by the axis-of-evil government of Sweden.
trump will be touting him as a great vegetable salesman.
“Welcome Mr. O’Brien, your office is the one with “FNG#27” on the door.”
trump’s probably kicking himself in the ass for sending the guy because Rocky never bothered to thank him.
Could be a lot worse, I guess? I’m afraid I don’t have a super hot take to share with the internet.
It could have been added to Jared’s portfolio!
Trump sticking his nose in the issue probably made things worse.
