        Basically said the quiet part out loud, which is probably why he deleted this tweet and replaced it with something less on the nose.

        Arguing over whether Biden's cabinet picks are progressive misses the point. The point is they are HIGHLY competent and the most diverse cabinet in history (but an Asian American pick is needed). Both of these facts are important. This inspiring team can make REAL progress.

        Now he says they can make REAL progress. Is REAL some acronym we don't know yet?

            He literally got his warfare ideas from novels written by a lifelong scam artist. In his last days as the Red Army approached he consulted the books for ideas, and found that in one the protagonist is being advanced upon and basically just summons an army of Germans out of nowhere, so that's what he tried, except the remaining soldiers were either very young, injured, traumatised from already getting rekt, and also had no weapons (or just didn't exist and his generals made them up to keep him happy)

      At least that ratio indicates he's getting pretty well bullied already.

    Ah yes, yes. They get inspired! They get inspired to . . . uh . . . let's see. Well, they get inspired to do things! Not anything that would change policy though, ha ha! But it is all very inspirational though, and I feel very good about our future! Haha yes, our future leaders are being inspired by the leaders of today to do very inspirational things. I think we can all feel very good about this :agony-acid:

    True, and as a guy worth over $200million I'm sure he knows how the sausage is made. You can tell he let the mask slip by his follow up.

    The point is they are HIGHLY competent and the most diverse cabinet in history

    Why does it matter if they're "competent" if they don't do any policy?

    Is that saying the quiet part loud about no policy actually being done in DC. That this is all about optics, material changes be dammed as nothing will fundamentally change.
