In January 2017, just a short week after taking office for the first time, President Trump had already issued 19 executive actions, and this paper dubbed him DON NONSTOP.
President-elect Donald Trump should rethink his picks of Tulsi Gabbard and Matt Gaetz for his cabinet, writes The Post Editorial Board.The MSNBC hosts had barely dried their tears before the president-elect was nominating almost his entire Cabinet.
Which is why Trump shouldn’t be so insistent that recess appointments be used to install his choices. It’s bad enough we had Alejandro Mayorkas as Biden’s gormless Homeland Security secretary. What happens when all guardrails are removed?While most of the Cabinet picks have been excellent, and some of them risky but promising, Gaetz and Gabbard are dreadful.They’re distracting chaos agents who won’t accomplish what Trump wants them to, and will most likely backfire on his agenda.We can see the affinity — Trump opposed the Iraq war and wants to limit our foreign escapades, as does she.
The congressman may have convinced Trump that he is the subject of “lawfare,” but it’s obvious all he wants is an escape hatch.He resigned from Congress before the release of an ethics report that reportedly accuses him of having sex with underage girls at drug-fueled parties.Neither Gabbard nor Gaetz are singular figures for what Trump wants to accomplish.
