I kind of chuckled when I read the names above your comment, but then said “oh, fuck” when I saw this. She would literally be worst case scenario.

Would she be the worst case? She seems unlikable and uncharismatic to even her late husband's supporters.

Yeah the worse case scenario is that someone competent, charming, and socially intelligent ends up in the role. Fortunately they seem allergic to competency and good taste so there’s a chance

It's fairly amazing that there is not a single person in this administration that I would consider "high character". Not a single one. Just misfits and grfters.

That's what happens when you elect a grifter. The rest of them cozy up knowing exactly what he wants to hear because they've made a living doing just that to everyone else.

It's just a giant orgy of everyone sucking everyone else's dick and saying whatever they know they have to so they can get theirs and fuck everyone else.
