All of this talk about reality is giving them way too much credit.

The simple fact is that we’re dealing with idiots and pure stupidity. Idiots elected them and the idiots are having their day in the sun. Unfortunately, their stupidity is no longer contained to the office environments and executive leadership roles they had before. They are unfortunately able to make decisions that affect the general population.

The US did an okay-ish job for a long time keeping people like this from gaining a foothold of too many positions of power. Unfortunately, we lost control and we may never get it back on the right track.

Secretary Hegseth earned a BA from Princeton and an MPP from Harvard.

Princeton and Harvard are graduating idiots?

Thank goodness! Such a relief! In that case, since he went to Princeton and Harvard, we shouldn’t consider his actions idiotic. Instead his actions are malicious intent.

		But you didn't just say Hegseths actions are idiotic (fwiw I think they are), you said Hegseth is an idiot. The evidence suggests he is not.
