    I don't recall him picking anyone just to fill a quota. And during the 2016 primaries (during which I was an Anybody But Trump person) I said one of his biggest difficulties would be finding qualified people to fill positions since he had nada political experience or connections. This was the same reason I thought he would have an uphill struggle passing any legislation he wanted. IIRC, he only had one Senator backing him. That's not a good start for a coalition.

    I'm always still in trouble again

        I hate it when any politician picks unqualified people.

        The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

              And maybe we need more unqualified relatives in there like the one who brokered peace deals with multiple Muslim countries after being repeatedly told by the career experts that was an impossible dream. Although I hear that Biden has a son who has a knack for sitting on foreign boards and getting paid several times more than anyone else for never showing up for a board meeting or doing a single thing.

                    You don't remember him filling his quota of swamp-people for his cabinet as he filled the swamp, and his quota of unqualified right-wing-zealot judges? Did you have your head in the sand his whole presidency?

                        There was nothing either petulant or stubborn in my reply. That you did not care for it is an entirely different matter.

                              I recall someone recently calling Trump "OOM", meaning Obese Orange Man. Can't remember who it was, maybe thormas (sorry if I'm not recalling correctly), but I guess that was not acceptable, either.

                              Right?
