    Is it really too much to ask for Secretaries to at least have some experience or education in the industries they are the head of?

      It’s apparently too much to ask for Secretaries to not be super fucking racist.

          It’s pretty obvious sarcasm with the “shhhh” part.

            thanks, “shhh” or “wait, i thought” already presents it as sarcasm without diluting the joke as much as “/s”

      It’s all in Project 2025. They’re purging everyone. Qualifications don’t matter, as long as you’re a Trump bootlicker.

      Okay, now you’ve got a fracking company CEO as Secretary of Energy.

      spoiler

      (Never mind that “DoE” is historically really more of a euphemism for the “nuclear department” and thus a fossil fuels dude isn’t actually as “qualified” as he might seem at first glance anyway.)

      It’s much more important that they are loyal to the orange dickhead and his agenda of destroying America.
