Trump now has 7 major positions empty. Dictator Don won't replace DHS head.



No Secretary of Defense. No Secretary of the Air Force. No FEMA Director. No Secretary of the Interior.
No U.N. Ambassador. No White House Chief of Staff. No Communications Director, I guess you could count Twitter.
Resign and ignore replacement.

This is one reality TV shit show led by the worst actor of them all - a fake fraud - a racist, fascist fool.

The individual ran like a coward rather than have the courage to invoke the 25th Amendment while they still could do something to address Trump's madness. Sunshine and lollipop patriots these.

By the time the 2020 election rolls around, the entire Cabinet will be Jared and Ivanka, each with a number of "acting" titles.

Well, if they don’t exist, guess what? no new regulations (likely important/needed) to add in. Plus he’s changing so that you can’t add in monetary benefit from a reg for cost,value studies. What this does is to let him say he eliminated x regulation and it’s saving the country $x zillions.

Hope whoever wins our nomination hires analysts to look at regs he’s gotten rid of. He will brag and it would be great to pull out a couple doozies to throw back at him. Like horrible stuff...dirty air and water stuff,
