Don't frequent this thread often, but have watched a bit of the current Trump cabinet meeting. Talk about surrounding himself with a bunch of ar*e licking, fawning people around him. They are articulate, obviously intelligent, but what the hell do they think of his rambling whittering. It's borderline comedy (if it wasn't so sad). Can't stop themselves having digs at Obama (almost as if to earn Brownie points from him). Trump spouts figures that he clearly makes up on the spot - it's cringeworthy to listen to. How on earth did this bufoon get to lead such a powerful country.

If his cabinet were really intelligent they wouldn’t have signed up in the first place.

The likes of Mike Johnson are pretty intelligent academically - it’s more the religious beliefs many operate with which dictates their thinking

He isn’t in the cabinet, all of whom were picked for their loyalty to Trump rather than their abilities to do their jobs. A lack of intelligence and a lack of a spine were almost prerequisites for being appointed.
Vance and Rubio are probably the smartest people in there which says a lot, but they’re as morally bankrupt as the rest.

Johnson is very loyal now to Trump - having been the opposite - and is in a very influential position.

He is, but Trump didn’t pick him and he was put in his position by his fellow Republicans. He will also be facing an electoral annihilation in the mid terms where loyalty to Trump will be a huge weakness, not a strength.

It's embarrassing. It's like having to constantly praise and reward a needy, spoilt child.
Some of those involved in his cabinet aren't stupid by any means, and while I would still massively disagree with them over their beliefs, I really cannot see why they are kissing the arse of a man who is obviously incompetent, corrupt and basically stupid. They must realise the damage they're doing to their country and their party. They must see how bad it looks and that in the future, when the reality of Trump is known worldwide, this will be a millstone around their neck. Do they have so little dignity and morals that they'll do anything if they think it'll be a short term boost for them?
At some point the rats will leave the sinking ship and somehow try to claim the moral high ground as they're 'doing the right thing' (by which they mean for their own careers and reputation)

It’s like an episode of Black Mirror. The one with Jesse Plemmons. It’s Robert Daly and his digitally cloned crew. He talked about a pen and his cabinet was laughing like he’s a comic genius when in reality it was just gibberish. And Sleepy Donald Trump fell asleep again.
