The 3 F’s of the second Trump administration.

And then fire them in a week. Problem solved.

Next gov?

She'll win in a landslide.

until she gets it.

If he does, you realize he'll sail through confirmation, right? He's got the military, legal and executive experience and, AFAIK, unlike Hegseth, he's not an alcoholic and serial adulterer.

Sad to say, that’s the best we can hope for. The policies are going to be the same no matter what. All things equal, I’d rather someone with at least some relevant experience.

Only place he should be headed is to treatment and AA.

who is a rapist and a disgusting pig.

He’ll probably require everyone to go to church and Bible study every day in the military.

who donned 'combat gear' for a photo op. He was a mere Lieutenant.

You actually don't even have to have been in the military. I disagree vehemently with DeSantis on policy, but he's not stupid, and he's a relatively competent administrator, even if his decisions are odious.

I actually don't see what's in it for him to take the job. As I've said elsewhere, "I serve at the pleasure of..." is not a good resume builder for the top slot, which is what DeSantis has in mind down the road.

...but being the Secretary of Defense who deployed US troops domestically may not be widely seen as a positive. The real question is if he'd have any backbone to stand up to Dump's worst desires and I doubt he would.

So far, the people he’s picking to go into his administration who might be good choices, are being slotted into jobs they would not be good at.

why give that up to be an underling to Trump?

though has a couple of years left this term. He must be willing to move on, though, since he ran in the R primaries.

I would not want to be a politician for all of the money in the world and that goes for cabinet positions, too. DoD would be bottom of my list (I'm very anti war) but he was in the military and a JAG so he may want to do it.

It looks like a big headache. Really, imagine being the governor of a state that's regularly hit by hurricanes. Non stop crises. He and other governors must enjoy the challenge of a job like that.

I also don't think DoD would be a demotion, as someone suggested. Governor and a cabinet secretary are both CEO like positions.

whining about woke, pulling his legislative puppet strings to pass idiotic laws (like book bans), deporting immigrants, and manipulating universities' curricula. If he goes to DoD, he'll be swinging way above his skill level.

and then he's out.

I doubt he'd consider trump ever dumping him. Besides, he has no morals or ethics so he'll be willing to do whatever trump wants.

than being a religious fanatic. I think THAT is what rules him.

It has seemed to me that he has been trying to drag Florida down into the swamp (no pun intended) of far rightness since he became governor. The waste of taxpayer money for these "projects" has been astounding. He spent our money to send a plane to pick up immigrants in Texas to take them up north. Punishing Disney (and again, taxpayers) for making a statement against his "don't say gay" bill. I could go on, but you get the drift. I think the so-called Christianity is just a guise to try to look like a fanatic rather than just evil. (I may be very biased in my assessment.)

Florida in Nov. agreed to pay $725,000 in legal fees and costs for businesses that successfully challenged part of a 2022 law that Gov. Ron DeSantis dubbed the "Stop WOKE Act."

of the taxpayer money he's spent to further his ambitions.

Santos fits the project 2025 plan. No regard or respect for humanity.

He may fit 2025 stuff but he is extremely pro Israel. After October 7, he sent a jet to bring back a bunch of Florida residents from Israel so he's probably well liked with that constituency.

Many of us in Florida would have been glad to see him go before he screwed up our schools and banned books, etc. At least we might be rid of him until sometime in 2026 - when his term is over. I’m sure if this happens we’ll end up with someone just as bad. We did have Rick Scott as governor before DeSantis.

I had Christian Ziegler on my BINGO card.

has obviously arrived.... WTF WTF WTF


Just shoot me now....

But let me wake up tomorrow, because I am not about to surrender this fight
to the Nazis...

Like an off brand wrestling tour.

Hmmmm....
I dunno what to prefer.

and name Herman Goering. Goering would be a perfect fit for the Trump cartel. Check out his history.

positions like FBI director who has a ten year term in office. Can Trump fire Senate approved directors without just cause?

Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders Boots standard for all dress uniforms!

trump had the evangelical church and the Catholic Church population voting for him and he still only won by less that one percent.

least horrible that might be picked.

hidden. Maybe he tortured people at Gitmo.

Wife, Casey, is a cancer survivor.
Three kids.
Happily married.
No personal/marital scandals.
MAGA before it was "cool".

Bringing his racist/sexist/homophobic policies to the military won't go over well. I don't think he could win a national election today but after serving in trump's disastrous admin, he'll be toxic.

Same same.

Where he can hide and never be prosecuted for anything he does.

eom

I mean, literally look it up. It isn't about stuff being stupid and clownish, it's what they call LGBT stuff, anything vaguely progressive.

How sad to see it on DU.

that supposedly makes him qualified to run the Pentagon. The Magic R has awesome power.

out of her appointments?

I can just see the headlines now, replete with frequent references to "hysteria" and "disarray" and midwestern diner denizens clucking their tongues and predicting the second coming of Jesus to annihilate us all.

And, like the rest of the msm, all the WSJ has to say about it is that TSF is "mulling." As if his dementia is a warm Christmas wine.

It seems that this offer may be condition on DeathSantis appointing Lara trump to replace Little Marco
