My Theory About Trump's Whackadoodle Cabinet Picks

Matt Gaetz as Attorney General? Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense? Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence? Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Secretary of Health & Human Services?

Suddenly, Marco Rubio as Secretary of State doesn't sound so bad. Even though it is.

Remember: Nobody in the Trump cult is saying that Gaetz is innocent, they're only saying that he has to be supported, because he's Trump's choice.

Why is it that Republicans never do the thing -- or ask others to do the thing -- that will prove them innocent? Or, at the least, provide reasonable doubt as to their guilt? Why don't they ever act like innocent men?

I have a theory: Trump is appointing so many whackadoodles (if you don't mind me using a technical term) to high office that he figures we'll concentrate so much energy on stopping one of them (most likely, Gaetz) that we won't be able to stop the others.
 
Then, he gets the Attorney General he really wants.

Most likely, this was a Stephen Miller idea, or a Steve Bannon idea, or a Roger Stone idea. Dumb Donald is SO dumb (How dumb IS he?), he couldn't have come up with this on his own.

I've wondered the same thing.
