US Politics

Do you think he is suitable for the role? Or any cabinet role?

'Suitable' is an interesting word.

Given how shit US healthcare is, I'm not convinced that they have ever had any one in the role who has been suitable.

If by 'suitable' do you mean 'approved of by the mainstream, genocide supporting, war-loving media and the people who uncritically consume it', then the answer is probably no.

If you do want to know what I think, I most likely wouldn't choose any of Trump's cabinet picks. Basically I think they are pretty much all cunts [and any hopes that people projected on to Trump / believed him when he said that he would turn away from the neo-cons has been shown to be false - and I'm not surprised by that as it is what I expected].

I don't consider Kennedy to be the worst, though. I have more of a problem with eg Rubio wanting to be in every war or Huckabee being a rampant zionist than I do with Kennedy's position on vaccination - whatever it might be, as I'm not entirely sure exactly what it is - but I expect we will be getting a lot more info on it soon.

I was pleasantly surprised when I saw he was nominated - given my extremely low expectations. Also it might liven things up a bit, and he might get the CIA papers released on his uncle's one-way trip to Dallas. The bear cub in Central Park was weird though!
