TRUMP CABINET 2024

 

 In 2016, Trump was political entertainment because the corporate liberal media portrayed him so, thus assuaging his crypto-Fascist image for the voters. In my view, the liberal media helped elect Trump by engaging in cult of personality nonsense and giving him tons of free coverage, exactly as Senator Sanders argued. They promoted Trump because he was on the side of big business, tax cuts, and deregulation. The scenario I have created above is intended as parody but the reality will be far worse than I describe as the US is most definitely on the road to authoritarianism.

There are many reports indicating that Trump has met with key allies from the field of right wing media, big business, and politics to discuss strategy for his return to power in 2024. Here is my list for top cabinet positions.

Vice President – Ted Cruz. Sure he will not be there any time there is a natural disaster or national emergency, but you will not find a better family vacationer down in Mexico than the Senator from Texas. And if you need a liaison between big business, the WH and the Senate, this man will do anything at all to make sure that your taxes make it into the back accounts of the Fortune 500 companies.  

Secretary of Defense - Michael Flynn. Always open to the option of declaring martial law to keep Trump in power for life, he is also not afraid of a silly little nuclear war with any country.

Secretary of Commerce - Mike (My Pillow) Lindell. Every American who buys at least one set of pillows will receive free of charge the easy to swallow COVID-19 toxic-based formula endorsed by the Pillow Man.

Secretary of Treasury - Paul Manafort. Oligarchs and money launderers of the world unite. The American government is open for business once again, that is, any kind of business as long as the 'under-the-table price is right"; no questions asked, none at all, once the check clears.

Secretary of State - Steve Bannon. Besides completing the border wall for the right price on the part of corporations 'willing to play ball", the focus will also be China, but again depending on which anti-China billionaire "is willing to play ball' with GOP big donors.

Attorney General - Bill Barr. When a person has done such a stellar job, has a history of defending of the Constitution as occasion warrants, albeit a massaged interpretation, and yet, the man is clever enough to jump ship just at the right time when a potential coup is in the works, well, that's the right person with integrity for the top law enforcement job.

Homeland Security- Roger Stone. When you really need a reliable, honest, proven asset with sorted counter-intelligence activities that go deep into the ranks of shady oligarchs, who is better than a man not afraid to confront US courts and liberal judges for the sake of the American Way of doing business?

Health and Human Services – Ron DeSantis. As America's top health official, he will act responsibly by immediately appointing a Republican panel led by Marjorie Greene and Matt Gaetz to consider abolishing the CDC and NIH for undermining Wall Street with their health warnings on prescription drugs.

 
Press Secretary - Sean Hannity. All press briefings will be conducted through the FOX NEWS channel directly by the celebrity news host. Needless to say, it will be a briefing with questions asked only by journalists that have solid credentials in manufacturing the truth, misinterpreting all statements of the Democratic Party, and focusing squarely on the amorphous democratic enemy.

 Jared wants to start some sort of an investment firm. However, I can see him as Labor Secretary, downsizing the department, cutting funding for public education, and asking his staff to send their children to "Charter Schools".


I can see Ivanka as WH Chief of Staff, demanding that Melania not reside at the WH any more and that only stylish-looking people can visit the President.
 

Don Jr. could be EPA chief, abolishing all EPA environmental regulations and giving license of fossil fuel companies to drill anywhere they like.
 

Erik could be US Trade Representative, making sure that the family businesses expand globally and Ivanka keeps her brand royalties regardless of conflict of interest.
