This is my "boiler plate" for the cabinet picks that Plopper is making: Absurdity is the point. Trump spent his entire life fighting the Federal and State Governments, the main regulatory agencies of what he does - construction - housing. He studied under the master of litigators who also fought any sort of government authority, Roy Cohn. And tRump learned the lessons of Cohn well. Delay as long as possible, constantly be on the attack, never admit defeat, always claim to win, never ever apologize or admit wrong. On a whim he decided to attempt to increase his "brand" so tRump ran for president and his message of "flork you!" to government has resonated with those who think only tangentially about government and their place in the circle. The constant enemy of the good (for the rest of us) is now in charge of that government which he has fought his entire career. Can one truly believe tRump will "...preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States"?

Those of us who revere the Constitution abhor the damage we see presciently as not on the horizon but just beyond the door. Money convinces and those with the most money win the argument even if it is detrimental to those who voted for it. Whether The United States will ever recover is truly an open question.😎

I've always said he's the world's greatest con man. I hate that I'm right, but I also said the legal offenses against him would not affect him one iota. Don's a slippery mofo.
