Jeff sessions is a terrible pick If you have any hope for states rights or that the government will shrink.


The attorney general neither makes or interprets laws, and has no input into the budgetary decisions of any governmental agency other than the DOJ, what possible effect could the DOJ have on the size of government and states rights?

Jeff Sessions is an excellent pick if you care about the laws including the constitution. Illegal immigrants and the people that illegally hire them will be under the microscope.

The OP is missing Nikki Haley and Betsy Devos. It needs to be added to the list.

quote:

Mike Huckabee - Ambassador to Israel
Arkansas Governor, Ran for president twice, Southern Baptist minister, tasked by Trump with taking over the ambassador position and moving the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
Mike Huckabee




This was never confirmed. It's just that fat tub of shite being an attention whore and predictably wanting attention.

quote:

Secretary of State
John Bolton, Bob Corker, Richard Haass





You frickers are going to melt so hard if Trump picks Romney.

Should be built to replicate Solomon's Temple.jk

That line did kind of jump out at me.

Love his picks so far.

I don't expect Romney to be in consideration.Or Bolton.

I have a bold proposal. I am going to mostly wait and see what they DO and who they actually ARE rather than nitpicking about something they may have SAID or who they MIGHT BE, mostly because I do not trust the media to be any more truthful NOW about what is going on than they have PROVEN to be in the immediate past.

This is just like the way the liberal press bitches about Supreme Court choices. If there is a record find a few quotes to take out of context or that represent positions that have changed. If there is no record bitch about a perceived "lack of experience". That is how we got Souter for the Supreme Court, likely the absolutely worst Justice in the last 50 years in terms of doing what his appointer was elected to select. Nobody tops Earl Warren in that regard though.

There is not one disruptive anti establishment guy on his cabinet so far.

Career politicians. Including the generals.

Riiiigghht. Republicans in Texas offer incentives to large companies who have illegal immigrants as their work force. Its why Texas doesnt enforce border security.

Sessions is a war on drugs Dinosaur
