I have to admit, the appointment announcements that we have heard about recently make absolutely no sense at all, which is not surprising in the least. It’s sort of like last time, but this time, it looks like someone is playing a parlor game.

I mean, really. Why did Don the Con appoint former Texas governor Rick Perry to head up the Department of Energy at the beginning of his previous term of office? His expertise? Hardly. His degree was in Animal Science, and his expertise before politics was driving Air Force cargo planes.

So why was he tapped by Bronzer Boy to be his Secretary of Energy? In the end, the only thing I could come up with at the time was that it resulted from an on-stage, on-camera primary debate faux pas when he forgot which executive branch departments he would eliminate as president. He forgot that one of his target departments was the Department of Energy. Remember his “Oops” moment?

So what could be funnier than appointing Rick Perry to the department that he forgot he wanted to eliminate?

Making appointments to critical government positions has apparently become a parlor game at Mar-A-Lago these days. The game apparently begins with the question, “Wouldn’t It be funny if…” And the winner is the one that comes up the most uproariously funny answer. And then it’s funnier still when Donald does the deed.

Or so it seems to me.

For example. Wouldn’t it be funny if child sexual trafficking Matt Gaetz was appointed Attorney General? Oh man, the Libs are gonna scream bloody murder. What an opportunity to collect some Liberal tears.

Wouldn’t It be funny if Libertarian and Pro-Putin propagandist Tulsi Gabbard was appointed Director of National Intelligence? That would be a knee slapper! They’re gonna think she’s passing information to Vlad!

Wouldn’t It be funny if Pete Hegseth, a clownish Fox News Weekend anchor, got appointed Secretary of Defense? Sean Hannity will be livid!

Wouldn’t It be funny if Christy Noem was appointed Secretary of Homeland Security? Undocumented migrants won’t know who she is, but disobedient puppies will all run for cover.

Parlor games. It has to be something like that, or it doesn’t make any sense. If this keeps up, Andy Borowitz’s comment that “we’re gonna need a bigger clown car” is more truth and less funny.
