WASHINGTON, D.C. — To date, Donald Trump has appointed seven people to his presidential cabinet, with at least seven more on the way. But is the damage already done? Critics are sounding the alarm that his current picks have zero experience as useless government bureaucrats.
American citizens, media pundits, and politicians from both sides of the aisle have expressed concern. According to sources, they just don't understand what Trump is thinking.
"Tulsi Gabbard as head of National Intelligence? Really?" said a flabbergasted John Bolton who previously served as Trump's National Security Advisor. "She doesn't have any experience sitting around Washington for years being a corrupt waste of space. We can't have that!"
Governor Kristi Noem as Homeland Security Secretary along with Tom Homan as Border Czar have also caused significant controversy because politicians fear they may actually address concerns at the southern border to prevent illegal immigration.
"Trump needs to pick people with experience in being faceless cogs in the federal machine who won't change anything," said MSNBC anchor Joe Scarborough. "These people are talking about doing their jobs and that scares me."
"The government has a long history of useless bureaucrats. It's an American tradition," said James Carville. "I mean, Pete Hegseth as Defense Secretary? He's going to strengthen our military and take care of our veterans. It's simply unconscionable!"
According to past members of presidential cabinets, it's not easy doing nothing. Only time will tell if the appointees can settle into their new jobs and become as useless as everyone else in Washington.
At publishing time, Trump further upset the status quo with his appointment of Thomas Massie as Secretary of Agriculture.
