Wow — I had many model trains when I was younger, so I guess this would make me more than qualified to be transportation secretary. What a joke...

He will drill cucumber size holes between the stalls so they can air out

Butt edge-edge is a retarded Commie son of a Commie Perfesser:

There’s no way in 4377 he’s going to help the USPS, UPS, FedEX, BNSF, pipelines nor airlines and general trucking in getting the job done.

When my son was little, over the years, we bought him a wooden Thomas the Tank Engine set. And when he was three, he dressed up as Thomas (paper plate face).

So I’m putting his name on the list! You’ve got some competition!

LOL!

"...recounting train trips on Amtrak while in college, and said he proposed to his now-husband, Chasten, in an airport terminal,"

Oh OK, that certainly qualifies him for the job then.

Given that every Presidential election from now on will be fixed, I would wager that we have at least 20 years of MSM love letters coming.
