To the Editor:

Well, America has spoken, and it’s clear that they preferred a sexual assaulting criminal in the White House than an intelligent woman. I’m sure Kamala won’t be attacking the Capitol to stop the counting of electoral votes just because she didn’t like the outcome of the election.

Now the Trumpster has started picking his cabinet members, and he’s really got some winners.

One of his first picks was to lead the Justice Department as AG. He chose Matt Gaetz as his best choice. Matt had to step down due to allegation of drug parties, and sex with a minor. Seems to me he would have fit right in.

Another superb pick is RFK Jr. to be his next Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services. Imagine this guy is one of the most anti-vaccine conspiracy theorists who’s come around in years. He even claimed that doctors found a dead brain worm in his head. Maybe they did, it must have starved to death.

Pete Hegseth was chosen by the Trumpster to lead the Defense Department. I suppose he was chosen because he apparently likes to party and has a sexual assault investigation on him. He too fits right in.

Then there is Tulsi Gabbard, picked to be Director of National Intelligence. She should know about national intelligence as she met with Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad in 2017 while she was in Congress. She also supported Russia when it came to help Assad battle the pro democracy fighters backed by NATO, who were trying to get Assad out of power. She was placed on a government watch list for overseas travel, and foreign connections. Imagine another Russia lover like Trump. No wonder he chose her.

What’s that old saying? “Birds of a feather flock together.”
