The Coming Clown Car Cabinet
November 14, 2024
You might remember the calamitous cast of cringey characters Trump surrounded himself (and us) with to populate his cabinet. I will not remind you of their names, but you may recall that they seemed to be the worst of the worst when he announced them and they did disappoint… spectacularly and relentlessly. Wait, it gets worse. Much, much worse.
This time, playing the part of #47 in his ongoing surreality
show, Der Furor has had to dig deeper to find an even worse batch of
miscreants, morons and treacherous cretins. For example, he picked a weekend
Fux News numb-nuts Pete Hegseth – someone with zero experience of any kind (except
lying on Trump’s behalf)
– to head the Department of Defense. Trump has also nominated fellow
accused-pedophile and rabid MAGAt Matt Gaetz to be the worst Attorney General
in American history.* Then there’s preacher/media whore Mike “Rapture Please”
Huckabee – who wants Jesus to return to either convert or kill all Jews –
pegged to be the new ambassador to…wait for it…Israel. Best idea since gas
chambers. Wonder if Mike will get antsy and take the Rapture into his own
hands. And that’s just the beginning.
Trump only considers two criteria for his cabinet picks. First
and foremost, they must be unquestioningly loyal to Trump and only Trump. Not God,
not country, not family, not themselves. Second, they must be camera-friendly. No
other qualifications need apply.
Mirror Morons
Someone asked me how these treacherous cretins in the Trump/Fascist Party can look at themselves in the mirror. The answer assaulted me in a flash: it’s easy, they’re all vampires and have no reflection. And yes, that is obviously a completely unavoidable double entendre.
There are brain cells called mirror neurons. These
cells activate when a person performs an action or observes someone else
perform the same action. These neurons also fire when we experience an emotion
as well as when we see someone else experiencing an emotion, such as happiness,
fear, anger, or sadness. Mirror neurons are involved in feeling empathy.
Our incoming administration is clearly devoid of any such
brain matter. They care nothing for understanding the actions, thoughts or
needs of others. While they are charged with governing an entire nation, they
care only to govern those they agree with. And even that is mere pretense.
This looks to get worse before it gets much worse.

*Before Gaetz can begin to
make his stain on American justice, he will have to be approved by the Senate. Gaetz is as popular in the House as Ted Cruz is in the Senate. Gaetz stands
accused of sex trafficking and drug abuse and only managed to quash a House
Ethics Committee investigation into his behavior by resigning his seat just the
other day. Is this fun or what?
I. Mangrey recovering. Barely. Not really. Not yet.
Gaetz learned from his lord and master, use political office in one way or another to avoid criminal charges. They’ve even managed to figure out how to use brain neurons for bad!
