The Trump Dream Team
American Thinker ^ | Brian C Joondeph

Posted on 11/18/2024 3:22:04 AM PST by RoosterRedux

Unlike in 2016, President-elect Trump now knows the players — the good and the bad — and has a plan. As he said in a pre-election interview:

"We have to get the right people. When I first came here [...] I really knew nobody...

So we will work with a lot of people to get a lot of people in. I now know sort of everybody. I'm not having to rely on people I didn't know very well. I think we are going to have phenomenal people. I know the good ones, the bad ones, the weak ones, the strong ones. I think we are going to have great people."

...

As Trump builds his Dream Team, one can gauge how dreamy this team is by watching the reaction from the left. As I was writing, I pulled up my X feed. Here are a few examples.

Pete Hegseth is simply a Fox News commentator, not a 20-year decorated combat military veteran. He likely understands boots-on-the-ground military far better than the parade generals who led us in a failed 20-year war in the Middle East, a botched Afghanistan withdrawal, a Gaza bridge that fell apart faster than Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign, and a DEI campaign that gave us Admiral Rachel Levine, a man who wears a dress.

The Beltway smart set says Matt Gaetz is a lightweight. We need a more experienced attorney or former judges like Janet Reno, Eric Holder, Loretta Lynch...

What if Gaetz is part of a bigger play? If the Senate refuses to confirm him, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis can appoint Gaetz to fill Marco Rubio’s Senate seat...

...

As usual, Trump may be two steps ahead of his opponents now that he understands the political landscape in D.C.

One tiny extra note:

Charlie Kirk summed it up well on X:

They spied on Trump.
So now they get Tulsi Gabbard.

They tried to lock up Trump.
So now they get Matt Gaetz.

They kept the border open.
So now they get Tom Homan.

They tried to ruin the country.
And they are getting what they deserve.

It’s questionable if Gates can keep the seat. In 2 years he’ll have to run to finish out the term and then again in 4 years for a full term.

Think Katherine Harris. The Bush’s were no help.

I’ve noticed that Lindsey Graham is no longer in Trump’s circle. Thank goodness.

Gaetz in the Senate is their worst nightmare. 😆
