Pete Buttcrack? Where was he during the entirety of the Biden Administration? Wasn't he Secretary of something, like Secretary of Binary Bathrooms or something like that. He would disappear for months at a time with nobody knowing where the hell he was. Go back and look at his accomplishments for the last 4 years, you won't find much of anything. He was a ghost. How about Biden's Secretary of Defense who checked himself into the hospital for major surgery it didn't tell anybody, not even the president. Not going to be too tough for Trump to do better than Biden did. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Bobby Kennedy is an early example. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |

Usually they get appointed Ambassador to some warm, friendly country, not put in the Presidential Order of Succession. |

Last I checked, we knew where he was at all times. And "Buttcrack"? Why, prey tell, would you say that? |

You must be new around here. We christened him Pete ButtCrack when he was running for president in 2020. Technically we knew where he was at all times but nobody saw him nobody heard from him nobody knew what the hell he was doing. He certainly wasn't doing government work. He is widely considered the worst Secretary of Transportation in United States history. He's an incompetent boob. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
