CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY NOVEMBER 12, 2024
PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP HAS ANNOUNCED THAT MIKE POMPEO AND NIKKI HALEY WILL NOT BE MEMBERS OF HIS CABINET. IT’S HIS RIGHT TO PICK WHO HE WANTS, BUT BOTH DEMONSTRATED COMPETENCE AND LEVEL HEADEDNESS IN HIS PREVIOUS ADMINISTRATION.
THOSE WHO ARE BEING SPECULATED ABOUT ARE ALL WHITE MEN, SAVE HIS CHIEF OF STAFF, WHO IS A WOMAN MOST PEOPLE HAVE NEVER HEARD OF. BUT SHE IS A LOYALIST, WHICH APPARENTLY IS A MAJOR QUALIFICATION IN TRUMP’S EYES.
NOW WOULD BE AN EXCELLENT TIME FOR TRUMP TO PICK A FEW SMART WOMEN. REMEMBER THE CHARGE BY MARK CUBAN THAT TRUMP WAS AFRAID TO BE SURROUNDED BY SMART WOMEN? HE COULD PROVE THEM WRONG BY SELECTING SOME SMART – AND YES, LOYAL – WOMEN FOR HIS CABINET AND OTHER OFFICES.
THIS WOULDN’T BE LIKE THE DEI PRACTICED BY JOE BIDEN AND THE LEFT. THESE WOULD BE ACCOMPLISHED PEOPLE WHO HAPPEN TO BE FEMALE AND, YES, HISPANIC AND BLACK.
NOT THAT THE LEFT WOULD PRAISE TRUMP FOR DOING SO, BECAUSE THEY ARE ABOUT IDEOLOGY FIRST, NO MATTER THE COLOR, OR GENDER.
PICKING SOME SMART WOMEN AND OTHERS WOULD BE A SMART MOVE FOR THE 47TH PRESIDENT, BUT IT’S HIS CHOICE TO MAKE. AND IT WOULD FURTHER BURST THE STEREOTYPE THAT MINORITIES AND WOMEN ARE MOSTLY DEMOCRATS. I’M CAL THOMAS.
HAVE ENJOYED READING CAL THOMAS COMMENTS FOR MANY YEARS – – ALONG WITH SOME OTHERS. IT WAS VERY EASY TO FIND A LIST OF PEOPLE ON THE DRUDGE REPORT, SADLY THAT LIST IS MISSING SINCE THE ELECTION. ….. JUST WONDERED WHY.
Don’t Know. Very strange. Maybe he is in rehab because he hates Trump
I’m anxious to hear your commentary on the cabinet choices. I’m thinking some are good and others defy good sense.
