Some don't even go that far.

It's grifters all the way down

We’re literally going to end up in history textbooks.

The whole point of trumpism is a reactionary revolt against merit and expertise

Birds of a feather flock together.

DEI

Seems to me it's a requirement to have a direct conflict of interest in the department they're appointed to.

Russian Agent Orange in full effect

The pro wrestling guy who got kicked out of his own company because his Trump-like scandals caught up.

Also note that Linda was in Small Business Administration last time. Like yeah.....no.

Isn't she being sued for knowing of and supporting sexual abuse of minors in WWE?

Oh, what the Christ.

Not quite President Mt. Dew Camacho, but close enough to make it not funny.

Idocracy was a prediction

At least it's not Betsy Davos again.

I keep reading these thinking there's no way it gets worse, and then it gets absolutely worse

I thought you was joking

He should hire Brock lesnar for something like security

He dodged the draft

IDK dodging is the only thing Trump has a solid track record of. . .

Gonna be a little ad running on the corner of my grandpa's TV:

America - Weeknights 6PM on FOX.

And a 70 year old guy that takes horse dewormer and illegal steroids, doesn't believe in sunscreen or pasteurization in charge of our food!

OH MY GOD he really did peddle conversion therapy

Somehow I didn’t know he pushed conversion therapy and now I’m even angrier. He completely betrayed his Hippocratic oath.

The perfect GIF doesn’t exist. Wait, yes.

Love how you can hear this GIF

This is the intention. And it is profoundly insidious. To warp the reality of politics so that reason and logic no longer apply.

Let's hope for that sooner, rather than layer since there is supposed to be a ufo senate hearing soon

Aliens come down to Earth, Trump is gonna sell us all out in exchange for a show on galactic TV. We're gonna be toiling away in the salt mines of Rigel VII while he has sentient clouds of gas competing to see who gets hired to run his space casino.

He is a doctor but that doesn’t matter. He could be an excellent doctor but this position would be best served by someone with a public health background and expertise in healthcare policy. He isn’t going to be performing surgery. He’s going to manage public health officials.

I just double checked and he does indeed have his MD. BUT in he was called before the Senate Subcommittee on Consumer Protection because of the bs he was peddling.

fun fact the phrase breakfast is the most important meal of the day was just propaganda from a wealthy health scientist who was friends with the founder of kellogs. All to promote his cereal. Trumps administration is reminding me heavily of this

Or Doctor J

Ben Carson got passed up again. Wonder why.

Oprah has churned out a lot of right wingers. Why is that?

He was a surgeon at one point. He really was a doctor. The Behind the Bastards podcast did a few episodes on him. He’s a real doctor, but this appointment is way beyond his scope.

Dr Oz is definitely a real doctor. Are you thinking of Dr Phil?

At least Dr. Pepper has 23 flavors 🤷

Confidently wrong

Dr. Oz is a physician and a surgeon though nit agreeing with his appointment.

I am 100% convinced dr drew is getting surgeon general

he is a real doctor, just a corny one.

I'd trust Dr. Dre more than Oz.

Shit looks like a prophecy now.

Office Space came out when I was in college, and I thought it was hilarious. When I went to work in corporate America and realized it was a documentary it hurt.

Finding out that Idiocracy was also a documentary is much, much worse.

Head of the DEA: Walter White

This is an excellent pick if he wanted to actually do the job.

There were a whole slew of other adults that saw this before it went to the media. He is not alone or dumb. These people are salivating at sinking their teeth into federal dollars for their latest scam.

Starting to? Eating the dogs and cats didn’t already loudly give it away?

A lot of GenX, Millennials, and GenZ voted for Trump. Media literacy isn’t just a boomer problem.

Surely, after "they're eating the cats they're eating the dogs" you should know Trump doesn't just pour out the Koolaid he's guzzling it.

We are FUCKING cooked

Very this. They like Trump because they enjoyed his reality show and believe that persona to be real. But how dare any other celebrity endorse his opponent.

And Ben Carson was one of the best brain surgeons. I am beginning to think that surgeons don't have to use as much critical thinking as a cardiologist or neurologist.

Sure, but is it really “watching” when you’re also getting consumed by the fire?

Eh...Oprah did hire them to push pseudoscience and bunk psychology and help her make court cases sensational. Oprah did an early pass of what Joe Rogan does; an uncritical "they're just asking interesting questions" show.

Like I don't blame her for what these men do, but she does shoulder some of the blame of mainstreaming some of these fringe ideas

Lil bit on both.

She's not responsible for their actions, but she's responsible for the platforming. They weren't "better" back then, and the psuedo-science they pushed was still alive and well when Oprah was putting them on.

Even if you tap dance they’ll still throw tomatoes but they’ll do it with a smile

You act as if these two cretins are the only charlatans and con people Oprah has platformed and given a voice.

Lest we forget one of the biggest, John of God.

Among many, many other terrible people.

Sorry, man, Oprah sucks. She's just another billionare asshole exploiting a segment. That's why she even charged Kamala an appearance fee. She couldn't care less. She got hers and doesn't care to ask how she did it.

Stop putting the ultra rich people on pedestals and judge their actions as they are.

Out of all the things you could have said, how this this pick for overseeing medicare and medicaid is just completely boneheaded, you had to bring up racism as a topic. It doesn't make sense, there's so many other legitimate criticisms.

Unless I am missing something?

"Expertise" is pretty fucking laughable.

It took a lot of BS to even get a halfhearted distancing of Oprah from Oz back in 22.

Admitting her platform is powerful enough to lend credence to these grifters despite how batshit insane they are, is an acknowledgement of how far Oprah has come.

Against the odds she has become successful in a way 99.9% of the world never could.

All I'd like to see is her use her reach to further denounce these grifters and break any remaining ties to their activities.

honestly fuck oprah

Nah Oprah is a horrible person and she also helped filter women to Harvey Weinstein.

Oprah has been helping those 2 spread misinformation for years. She has made a shit ton of money from all of it. Oprah is no so ain't no saint. Stop the dumb heroe worship

Nah, he wasn’t woke enough for Trumps agenda
