    He’s the highest ever out gay person in US politics. 5th in line in the presidential succession.

    If he were a democrat, the press would have mentioned that once or twice.

    You were warned.

      Now it makes sense. I didn't know that, but sometimes when I hear his ideas I say, "Man, that idea is really gay"

        I didn't know he's gay, but I'm not super surprised.

        Education is extremely important.

          He has a husband and two kids. One more than Mayor Pete who was previously the highest ranking openly gay person in government.

          You were warned.

            Though the tranny was one spot higher than Pete. But I don’t know if he’s gay or not.

            You were warned.

                Succession is
                VP
                Speaker of house
                Speaker pro tempore of senate
                Sec state
                Sec treas

                After that it’s cabinet secretaries in order of the departments creation, skipping anyone not born in the US (which is allowed for cabinet secretaries), or not senate confirmed (like they were selected but haven’t yet had their confirmation)

                You were warned.

                    I understand the today Bessent referred to Putin as a war criminal before the committee.

                    https://www.kyivpost.com/post/52210

                    That remark should now make his days numbered in the Court of the Orange Tsar.

                    Elbows up!
