    Well to be fair even the school was reporting an active shooter situation. You can argue what you want about politicizing tragedy (which I think is a bullshit argument) but he was going based off what everyone was saying at the time. It turned out later this was reported because of the gunshots from the cops but it's pretty disingenuous to make it sound like he just made it up out of thin air.

    That's actually quite fitting. Have you seen him when he gets too excited at his rallies? His whole body turns orange.

    Now we're talking. Of all of my military friends familiar with Mattis' exploits, I have never heard one of them have a bad word to say about him. I really think there will be a positive change in the military based on this. Here's a famous quote of his:

    Trump made his first cabinet appointment that isn't a nation-ruining disaster

    Something about grabbing a pussy by the throat...

    Anyway, it was nice to see the carrier deal. Not all that substantial in the grander scheme of things, but not bad for a guy who hasn't even taken office yet.

    Of his appointments the only two that really bother me so far are Pence and Tom Price. Mattis and Ross are great appointments. Not sure what to think about Devos.

    She's married to Mitch McConnell and is therefore literally Hitler and commits a holocaust on a daily basis.

    Ah, well, she was Deputy Trans Secretary and Director of the Peace Corps BEFORE she married McConnell, so I was hoping that counted in her favor. I don't know, but she seems fairly qualified and a reasonable choice to me, since she held a cabinet position before.

    She seems fine. Total Washington insider though, so shouldn't Trump voters be pissed off?

    That drain the swamp bit didn't last a month. I think Trump University was able to put on a better show than that at least.

    Who did see that coming? He bragged about cronyism in the campaign and claimed he could right the ship. I'm not sure he knows how to operate without it. His virulent supporters will claim it's a 4d chess maneuver and strict conservatives will be happy as long as they get some hardliners in there. If the economy doesn't completely tank you probably won't see much reaction out of his base supporters.

    He did it to himself though. What did he expect?

    On another note, I cannot believe the Democrats picked Nancy Pelosi again.

    Yeah, we shouldn't hold him accountable for a) being able to run a capable government b) doing what he said he was going to do.

    That just wouldn't be fair.
