I could have led them to a 312 to 226 loss for WAY less than 20 million dollars.

Nah, take it. That's just 'spillage' from their billion.
I know they're goin' fast, but they offer you a cabinet position yet?

Hell - I could get him past 500 just by getting the democrats to stick to their silly National Popular Vote Interstate Compact (NPCIC) agreement...
...the one where 17 states and Permanent DC agreed to assign their electoral votes to the candidate that won the overall National Popular vote
...which by the way was agreed to by both Gov Tampon Tim Walz and Gov Cuomo
Trump wins with over 500 vote losing only in Virginia and new Hampshire
On a related note - Harris collected a billion dollars - spent 20 million over her budget and still cant pay her staff
...and yet we the people were to believe that she had the stones to fix the nations economy?

I loved the irony of it ...
Had over $1 Billion in campaign monies;
Ends up $20 Million in the hole ...
But said SHE was going to "fix" the economy once elected.

According to the mainstream news media - we may lose the next war because President-Elect Donald Trump has nominated a man that doesn't wash his hands to serve as the Secretary of Defense...
...there's a storm coming

Some of the picks are interesting. But I can only imagine the woke ( queers for Palestine) cabinet Harris would have put in.
Biden/Harris - Equity before Merit
Trump - Fealty before Merit
Merit may have to wait a bit longer.
I don't really care as long Trump secures our borders. And maybe squeezes some woke out of the government. Although I am pretty sure the latter will get done. With control of both houses there has never been a better time to fix this immigration mess.

I've got to say - in some cases - I'm ok with fealty before merit.
It's hard to argue that Mattis is a man without merit - but he certainly didn't show a lot of loyalty to his Commander-In-Chief when the Commander-In-Chief gave him orders that he didn't want to follow.
James Mattis is a career military man that could have done a fine job as the SECDEF - men like him and Kelly and even that big fat former SF guy - are ALL capable men of great merit - but they did to their Commander In Chief something that every single one of them would have buried one of their subordinates for even THINKING about doing...
...and so their merit - however great it may have been - in the end - was of little value to the first Trump administration.
In addition to these men of merit SQUANDERING their opportunity to positively impact their nation - they chose to speak in low tones in dark corners of the room as they went about undermining the efforts and dismantling the public trust in the Commander In Chief.
...because they didn't think he was "presidential enough"
ANY of these assholes could have metaphorically set fire to the administration by publicly resigning in disgust - on the spot - while openly blowing the whistle on why they so suddenly resigned their positions...
...instead, they chose to speak in low tones in dark corners of the room as they went about undermining the efforts of their boss and dismantling the public trust in the commander in chief.
...one of these pricks even gave comfort to the enemy when he ADMITTEDLY told the Chinese he would interfere with the POTUS "shooting missiles at them" if push came to shove.
Like MANY of the modern day FOGO demographic that has openly decided to shed the quiet professional mantle of men like George Marshall - these "men of merit" opted to pursue the life of celebrity FOGO as they chose to speak in low tones in dark corners of the room as they went about undermining the efforts of their boss and dismantling the public trust in the commander in chief - then they waited until they left their old job and found benefit to bashing their commander in chief in public as a way to personally enrich their social standing...
These are all men of great merit - that surrendered their honor as far as I'm concerned.
What war did these assholes win anyway?
Someone remind me what qualifies them as "winners" when EVERY.SINGLE.FOGO.ON.TV.CONTRIBUTED.TO.OUR.LOSSES. in Iraq and Afghanistan...
These assholes were in charge of shit when Bush was the POTUS - and when Obama was the POTUS and when Biden was the POTUS
...but somehow, they all seem to suggest that President-Elect Trump is the one that was causing all the problems.
Fuck those jackasses - fuck them all - fuck them all RIGHT in their stupid asses.
That is all.

Fealty is its own form of merit.
Trump was the one who was elected and is accountable to the voters of the United States. His appointees have a duty to serve his agenda since that is what the voters chose.
It is a longstanding problem in DC that presidential appointees come to see themselves not as the President's representative to their department or agency, but as the department's or agency's advocate to the White House. Colin Powell was a typical example. His job was to see that the State Department implemented the policies of the elected President, but he acted as if his job was to represent the interests of the professional Foreign Service.

Huge Test of Fealty?
I am beyond excited at this initiative. I do think it’s gonna be an uphill climb. Politicians on both sides of the aisle are gonna break with Trump over this one.
