    Where's Brad Pitt and BJ Novak when you need them?
    if you just casually watch random segments, you would think he's a intelligent, well-mannered person. He mostly is. But then he comes out of nowhere at least twice making fun of people in the audiences weight. He's not a white supremacist. He's a body image supremacist.
    Fatties were the only portion of the population Trump never offended when he campaigned.

    As many as he wants, let's hope they can keep Trump's mindset in perspective. We shall see in these next 4 years.

    This is a smart move since he knows more than them about the enemy. In fact, all generals should be in the cabinet. Gotta get these wimps in line. We gotta kick sadaams ass once and for all!!

    I don't think the 3rd party is to blame, at least I haven't seen evidence of it.
    Trump won something like 80% of the voters who did not like any candidate. Many of the 3rd party voters voted 3rd party because they did not like any candidate. I haven't seen a direct survey or poll, but it seems to me many of the 3rd part voters would have voted Trump if they had to pick from the 2 main candidates, and not necessarily was a vote taken away from Clinton. So why are they to blame?

    You're right...they aren't too blame. Clinton won the popular vote by almost 3 million votes.

    What kind of people with what kind of experience would you prefer to be in charge of defense or security? I, for one, think that they are excellent choices.

    Yeah, he's a real winner. Close ties to Russia. Has praised Putin. Gave secrets to Turkey. Son kicked off the transition team for pizzagate. I'm pretty sure the Ukraine is fucked with Flynn having influence. And Mattis is a warrior, not an administrator. He hates Iran, and will not be helpful in our dealings with the Middle East (unless the plan is to blow it up).

    Not a huge fan of Flynn. I was more meaning that people with prior military strategy experience are great choices. I do think I that Mattis is a good pick though.

    Having this many military people is a horrible idea. Maybe having one for the military perspective on things is reasonable, but that mindset surrounding trump with his ineptitude about foreign relations is bad news. The odds of the US starting another war just went up significantly.

    But not all three were members of his cabinet at the same time or appointed together. Also the Secretary of the VA has always been someone from the military. So I expect the Cheeto to select another former general for that post. As of now, there are the generals in this cabinet than any presidential cabinet since WWII.
