I have long since come to the conclusion all this insanity we see is 100% intentional.

That is, they take someone like this and appoint them to a potentially serious position (Nuclear Waste Management???) simply because they are the most outlandish, outrageous, and personally flawed and incompetent that could be found.

And they are doing it to “flex” so to speak. In the faces of the American people.

And they are doing it for effect, and to alienate people.

“In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, not to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better.

When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity.

To assent to obvious lies is...in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control.

I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.”

I’m with you on that. It’s blatant in your face mocking of traditional values.

All good - just let em come out of the woodwork and get public. People need to know who is going on the checklist.

Well look at our transportation secretary. He was not hired because of his qualifications for the job.

All concerned about a law in Florida instead of the Detroit/Canadian border bridge...
