President-Elect Trump's cabinet
-
Only two years of undivided government?
That tracks. Even beyond the normal anti-incumbent backlash they have an unfavorable map in 2026. Nate posted about it today.
DON’T let them eat cake.

What astounds me about Trump is his inability to stump and pull others across the finish line. I mean, all he would need to do is send a message… “Arizonans, if you’re voting for me, I also need you to vote for———- for Senate/Congress. No matter your personal opinions about the candidate, I can’t do what you want me to do without having a clear majority in Congress. A vote for me is wasted without ———-“ But he doesn’t do it. I don’t think he wants to admit he needs the others.

I don't know if this is true, but I saw someone say that this is not the first time that a presidential winner didn't have long enough coattails to pull a senate candidate across.
But, it's the first time that it happened in three states at the same election.

Alina Habba - one of his attorneys.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

splitting the ticket for an intentionally divided government is a high IQ move.
It’s an interesting Senate. Remember that 3 of the Republicans are Romney, Murkowski, and Collins… And whoever DeSantis appoints to replace Rubio. I wouldn’t assume that to be a Trump Loyalist…

She is a pitbull. Press conferences are going to be fun.
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

My impression of her is she’s kind of an idiot. So yeah…
Now that Kamala’s out, I can feel my loyalties switching to the loyal opposition in many respects…

Pete Hegseth for SecDef.
Was NOT expecting that.
He'll probably be the first SecDef with ink.
Department of Veteran Affairs? Great pick. SecDef? FFS…

But still better than the other side…

Might have been a WW-II vet that had a US Marines or Iwo Jima tattoo or the like.

Isn’t she the one that brought a gamer laptop to his trial or something? If so, she needs a good spanking.

Is he imagining that Congress will create a new department? Or did he just want to goose Dogecoin? (which doubled this week)

Seems weird to create a department for 2 guys that are going to oversee a single 600p report.
