This is roughly how I thought it would go, but lordy, Gaetz is a true astonishment. Speculation on MTG welcome......

The most positive aspect of this fully Trumpyfascist administration is going to be the ease at which foreign powers will be able to absolutely dogwalk them in the international arena, and they can be pitted against one another so easily. Domestic surveillance capabilities with straight up clowns is going to be laughable. It's going to be a speedy collapse with so many pilfering snakes at positions of leadership. China has got to just be rolling on the floor at the inevitable downfall.

I didn't think it was possible for this timeline to get any dumber or more vicious, but here we are.

I've now posted this comment on 3 different substacks about these appointments because it really is the only thing I can say.

You know how it's often been reported that Trump takes the position of the last person he talked to?

Maybe he has taken it a step further and he is giving actual positions to the last person he talked to.

That literally might be the case with Gaetz, reports are they were on a plane ride together for a few hours and Trump made his announcement right after.

i love how these fucking rubes take stances that fly in the face of hundreds of years of accepted science because they read some anonymous dipshit on twitter saying things like “actually regular exposure of norovirus is beneficial to your gut health”

Did you know that trump in The Art of the Deal wrote how he never washed his hands after using the bathroom and so when shaking hands with people they inadvertenly came into contact with his "schlong"? Yep. He wrote that.

Trump didn't write that book, it was entirely ghostwritten.

Look I hate Matt Gaetz too, and no doubt that he's a creepy pedo, but I'm pretty sure in that tweet he's referring to the vast elderly population of Florida.
