A Cabinet selected on its skill in owning the libs

By David French / The New York Times

What do you see when you look at pictures of President Donald Trump’s Cabinet?

We’re used to partisan disagreement about Cabinet officials. Democrats are never going to be that impressed by a Republican Cabinet (and vice versa), but as with so many things, the perception gap between Republicans and Democrats has become so vast, it’s as if they inhabit different universes.

Trump’s critics — and I am one — look at the lineup and see, in essence, a group of people that bears far more resemblance to a collection of North Korean generals than it does to a traditional U.S. Cabinet.

And for good reason. Trump’s Cabinet meetings often feature the members publicly showering the president with praise, sometimes in the most absurd terms.

Trump picked those who will kiss his oversized ass. The only ones getting owned are the kissers.
