I doubt it'd be without a peep as Bolton is one of the most abrasive and repellent humans currently alive, and would be guaranteed to spend a fair amount of his confirmation hearing sneeringly condescending to just about everyone in the room.

Ben Carson denied his qualifications for a Cabinet position only a week before he accepted one. That might make his HUD confirmation hearings fun.

I actually believe Clinton as president with congress being the same result as now would harm more Americans and also kill millions more foreigners

I do not like the GOP, i would prefer Trump having to work with a blue congress as he probably will in the latter 2 years of his first term. If he ends up being a rubber stamp, that sucks, but that is why it is a good thing that he is a petulant child who will listen to his base, the base that even before adding rustocrats would literally vote to behead Paul Ryan on live TV

This is the second time he's done this. The first was 5 days after the election.

You're the shitpost!

What you actually believed is just about wrong in every sense, and has been proven to be wrong over and over. The woman was far from perfect (no one actually is perfect though so who cares?) but she wouldn't have harmed more Americans or foreigners. This is the man who wants to deport millions of hardworking people living here on day one. Those people are, frankly, more American than I am because they chose to live here, and they struggle to stay here and contribute. I was just born here and perennially exist here as a shitposting lump. I'd question my American credentials prior to theirs. As for foreigners, I will just reiterate that this is a guy who thinks torture works, and explicitly wants to kill children of suspected terrorists instead of accidentally killing children of suspected terrorists, the Bush/Clinton/Obama status quo. Both suck but one's a lot more evil.


We will not have a blue House or Senate in two years. It's naive to think that when the man has constructed a Kim-esque personality cult for himself. He's immune to criticism, and will instead install more daughter-screwing Trumpian GOP lackeys in the legislature in 2018. He is a petulant child, but he has not demonstrated that he'll even necessarily listen to his base. And listening to his base will accomplish what exactly? Political imprisonment of former opponents and Muslim internment camps? Yeah, let's not listen to those guys, thanks.

Illegal immigrants are not Americans because the word American means, at least to me, American citizens. Clinton is a criminal who broke the law, and if she isn't she will not be put in jail just hassled yet again. There is no current plan to implement internment camps or even to ban Muslim immigrants except those from volatile nations. There is nothing unconstitutional about a religious test on immigrants, those protections begin only once they are within US jurisdiction.

His base is now sufficiently large and center-right enough that he has already reversed on torture use, the two most liked aspects of Obamacare, and his initial decision to not put through the lobbyist ban in his transition team. He will soon save millions of lives by ending the conflict in Syria and returning control to the Assad regime.
