The Cartoon Cabinet

🤪At least they're not a super-smart team of right-wing functionaries...

Just a quick post today to reflect on what is going on in the weirdest cabinet in American history.

(Not to be confused with the “dream team” that is the best “talent pool since the Founding Fathers.”)

It’s now extremely apparent that appearing as a guest or being a host on Fox News is one of the surest paths to joining the Trump cabinet.

But never fear, there are other ways!

You could kill puppies, have a militia tattoo or be a prime suspect in some sort of possible sexual crime.

So why not roll a collection of possibilities into one cartoon?

Keep in mind this is just the tip o’ the iceberg of strange and awful things the top contenders have done.

Not pictured is the aforementioned puppy-killing, kids-in-cages to deter refugee parents from seeking a better life, cozying up to Syria’s Bashar al-Assad and of course, wanting to overthrow democracy.

What else have I missed?

If there is any sort of consolation prize to this madness, it’s that clearly most of these cabinet picks are not dealing with a full deck.

We may (fortunately) still be dealing with an inept administration-in-waiting, which (unfortunately) will still be able to do plenty of damage.

Now all we have to do is wait for Steve Bannon or Rudy Giuliani to be appointed Treasury Secretary . . .
