A fucking TV show host is going to be the man responsible for the defense of our country?

[–] joyjoy@lemm.ee 19 points 5 days ago

And a tv celebrity is going to be the commander in chief. This isn't surprising.

Well he's got a strong jaw, thinks America's enemies should be bombed back to the stone age and he must have sucked up to Trump at some point. What, do you need more qualifications?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago

A fucking TV show host is about to be Commander in Chief. For the second time.

Well we need to Fill The Swamp right?

But he has a strong jaw line!

He's a major in the national guard. Not... The level of experience I would deem necessary, but it's not like he's some rando.

Really hate that I'm giving any sort of credit to trump, but we can at least criticize accurately.

[–] Pistcow@lemm.ee 14 points 5 days ago

That is a rando and doesn't excuse it in the least.
