For what it’s worth, the Dems are complaining about some of Trump’s picks for various cabinet positions. To paraphrase, “So and so is not qualified to be XXX.” My first response to this is, “Compared to Who?”
NB: the following has not been taken from the Babylon Bee!
From Townhall:
“Let’s take a look at current Biden HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra.
As the former Attorney General of California, Becerra is not a doctor and has no prior health experience. He’s a hardened, leftist zealot whose only record on health includes suing nuns in order to force them to provide birth control — a move that was found wildly unconstitutional and a blatant violation of their First Amendment rights. Eventually, the nuns were victorious at the Supreme Court.
Next, we move on to former Mayor Pete Buttigieg, who was chosen as Biden’s Transportation Secretary because he “likes trains” and could use allocated funding to pursue the left’s social justice agenda under the guise of “infrastructure.” Before getting the job and being confirmed by the Senate, Buttigieg’s only background in transportation was failing to fill potholes in South Bend, Indiana.
Both of these amateurs were confirmed by senators. I’m not going to get into the number of men pretending to be women, like HHS Assistant Secretary Richard “Rachel” Levine, who are stacked all over the Biden administration. They weren’t placed there because they knew what they were doing, instead, they satisfied the Democrats’ identity politics agenda and rejection of meritocracy, especially in a bureaucratic government.”
But these are not the only unqualified lulus. Look at some more of the unqualified random losers that Biden picked.
From X:
Jared Bernstein, Chair of Council of Economic Advisors – not an economist, Bachelor’s degree in music, masters in sociology
Mayorkas, DHS Secretary – no security background, lawyer, Asst U.S. attorney, Obama transition team
Jennifer Granholm, Energy Secy – no energy background, Michigan Governor
Gina Raimondo, Commerce Secretary – No trade background, Gov of Rhode Island
Deb Haaland, Interior Secy – New Mexico Congressman
All of the above are much more unqualified compared to Trump’s picks.
