Mattis was a collaborator. That’s what you call people who decide to cooperate with and serve crooked, evil regimes in an effort to ‘moderate’ them: Collaborators.
Oh gee, well we better vote for Trump again!
So let’s see…dirty socialism, brown people invading our country, huge stock market losses, AOC, – man, the Democrats are an evil bunch!

You forgot the national and global infanticide campaign.

That prompted a laugh out loud moment at work, where everyone looked over wondering what was so funny. Good grief.I wish it was happy laughter instead of “will someone just put me out of my misery, I can’t take another day of this shitshow”.
Moore is a complete shithead, but he’s also exactly the kind of guy I expected DJT to appoint when he was elected. DJT is an imbecile, it’s completely logical that his appointments would all be crooks or morons. But hey, it’s what the great heartland voters demanded.

Stephen Moore is laughably unqualified.

Yeah… but it’s still a surprise to see that the GOP considers that important where Trump is concerned. I guess even they realize that fuckups at the Fed are not something you can just spin away and blame on Obama.

It’s a good point. They’re more than happy to approve any jackass judge that Trump throws their way for a lifetime appointment, but the Fed, I guess, is serious business.
One or even two Fed governors can be totally marginalized, and have no influence on policy. They save their serious blind fealty for the posts that matter.

Imagine Herman Cain and Stephen Moore holding a press conference to announce that we’re returning to the gold standard, disbanding the fed and now consider “Trumpy Bears” as legal tender. Some GOP senators may fear that impacting their odds for re-election.
Hilarious. This dipshit is the quintessential DJT appointee.

When your nominee needs to spend a couple weeks doing an apology tour for all the insane things he’s said over the last few years, you know you’re in trouble. It truly is classic Trump vetting.
