It would be presumptuous for me to describe Donald Trump as our nation's "dumbest" President as only a few (14) have served in my lifetime:  

Harry S. Truman, Dwight D. Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, William J. Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, Donald J. Trump and Joseph R. Biden.

So, I'll leave that designation to historians.

Were I so tempted, I'd likely say something about Trump's recent Executive Order on showerheads, "undoing the left's war on water pressure," as he put it, but I'll leave that alone too.

Yet, I can't avoid commenting on Secretary of Education Linda McMahon's confusing artificial intelligence with steak sauce.

Repeatedly, during a conference on education, McMahon kept referring to artificial intelligence as "A1," the name of a popular steak sauce

McMahon, the former head of World Wresting Entertainment (WWE) before Trump put her in charge of our nation's schools, reportedly said:

"A school system that's going to start making sure that first graders, or even pre-Ks, have A1 teaching in every year. That's a wonderful thing!"

"Kids are sponges. They just absorb everything," she added. "It wasn't all that long ago that it was, 'We're going to have internet in our schools!' Now let's see A1 and how can that be helpful."

McMahon is not the only Trump appointee seemingly incompetent.

I've a friend who supported RFK, Jr. for President, and while I respect Kennedy's positions years ago on the need for clean water, he's definitely flown well over the cuckoo's nest since and yet, now Trump's put this extremely strange man in charge of Health and Human Services.  

                                      


My total lack of respect for Kennedy's skill set has nothing to do with the spasmodic dysphonia affecting his voice tone or even his history as a sexual predator.  Hell, that's almost a prerequisite to serve in the Trump administration.

There are just so many obvious signs of mental instability with respect to Kennedy,  including the dumping of a bear carcass in New York's Central Park, sawing off the head of a whale washed up on the beach and strapping it to the roof of his minivan to take home, all his anti-vax bull shit, contentions that "covid-19 was targeted" to attack "Caucasians and Blacks," that "Chinese and Ashkenazi Jews are less susceptible to it," that school shootings are caused by the drug prozac or that labs in Ukraine have been collecting DNA from Russians and Chinese "to target people by race."

With respect to RFK, Jr., it just keeps adding up, exhaustingly, to Looney Tunes.

OK, I'm about finished, but, in recent months we've learned that Kennedy was incredibly dishonest with his claims that his role on the Children's Defense Fund was "unpaid" and that his services were performed "opposite the profit motive," when he actually was paid $2.2M for his work, and we also have an Axios report that he funneled $79M from the Water Keeper Alliance to a Bahamas account.

OK.  That's a bit of overkill, but RFK, Jr. should not be the head of anything, let alone HHS.

While I fully intended to comment on Secretary of State Marco Rubio's silly attack on "anti-Christian bias" and Alina Habba's failure to understand the meaning of the phrase "due process," this article has already exceeded its word limit.

Let's just say that President Trump has assembled an "interesting" administration to run our country and Americans will pay the price for the incompetence.
