We don't need a State Department
« on: March 02, 2017, 03:06:14 PM »
Getting rid of it or basically neutering it was part of Trump's campaign to make us great again ....right?

Lots of press recently about all the vacancies and people sitting around doing almost nothing

Tillerson, Trump, Bannon and Kushner can basically just take care of what the State Department used to do?

Right?

Stupid fucking generals. What do they know about diplomacy.  Most of them have probably never run a business or built a condo.

The perfect GOV for President Trump would be him alone with no cabinet, no congress or supreme Ct.

Then he could call himself Emperor Trump and have Shawn Spicer declare him a GOD.
