Another post by Saevel, another reference to this mysterious "they" where no one has any idea who he's talking about.

It's not like he can do anything directly about them, except complete defunding, but that shouldn't be possible until he passes his first budget. Incorrect. He can certainly relocate them to the mailroom or replace them altogether.
You are certainly permitted the opportunity to bring your own people into Washington when you're elected president.

Yeah, he can't do anything other than attempt to defund.

Trump taps former Texas Gov. Rick Perry to head Energy Department he once vowed to abolish
So, we're replacing physicists with a joke who barely scraped by at A&M with a degree in Animal Science.

Rick Perry really? One of the dumbest people in the GOP lol. He will probably get lost driving to work everyday.

Why aren't you complaining about them backing up decades of government weather data for preservation out of fear of Trumps administration destroying it?

It's sort of been a motif with the nominations. It's mostly people who have been openly hostile to departments and agencies getting appointed to their top positions.

This is sort of where I was going with what I was saying before.
You can say Trump's "draining the swap" or "can't be controlled," but there's an awful lot of GOP party line being put into place here...

With the exception of the Labor appointment, Putzer. This is the guy Trump ran hard against in the election. Pro immigration, pro-amnesty, pro-low skilled worker benefits. So naturally, he gets a Cabinet position. Because Trump.
Its not complaining btw, its laughing. I know some people here confuse the two.

I just would have assumed that from his soaring rhetoric he maybe intended to actually shake things up.
Not fall back on the same party line ***for the party that "isn't his boss."
Yeah, he's real outside of that game!
...he just happens to be appointing a bunch of the GOP's wet dreams to cabinet positions.

Why couldn't it be Dan Quayle? Then the potato tie in would have come round full circle

I don't think Rick Perry is a GOP wet dream, the guy ran for POTUS twice and was one of the first people to drop out both times. He tried the Superman/Clark Kent trick of wearing glasses the 2nd time around, and reaffirmed it is the worst disguise ever.

I think you may not be thinking big picture enough.
Or maybe I'm giving too much credit to the scheming machinations of some politicians.

Then he is just going to lose a bunch of very skilled workers. Seems like a waste, I highly doubt they will work in coal mines.
Someone has to clean the coal.

No he isn't. Pay no attention to nausi, federal agencies aren't made up of political appointees. These are working people, some of which work through many administrations, they don't get fired without cause.

Do you remember when A&M abolished their legacy clause? I'm curious as to whether his parents were alums.
