So…are ANY of Trump’s picks remotely competent? I mean, I’m sure they were all chosen because they are corrupt amoral toadies, but do any of them have any actual qualifications to run the departments they were chosen for? I don’t mean a passing familiarity with what the department does. I mean real qualifications, like expertise in the field, administrative credentials, relevant degrees or ranks…any of them???
