Another Underhanded Move By Trump

[Lewdog]

In yet another possible move to fire and replace a cabinet member, it appears the White house may fire Rick Perry, and replace him with a Democrat... Senator Manchin from West Virgina. Conservatives may say, "But why appoint a Democrat?" Well it has two things about it that would favor Trump's agenda. It would put a guy from a coal state in the Energy Department thus securing faith from West Virgina voters, AND most importantly, then the now Republican Governor from West Virginia could appoint a Republican Senator to take Manchin's place and thus give the Republicans another vote in the Senate to help repeal Obamacare.

Given how Trump's treated several of his cabinet-level appointees, I can't see why any self-respecting Senator would accept such an offer.

If I'm the Democratic party I would be begging Manchin to not take the post... and yes I wouldn't want to work for the crazy idiot either.

Begging is par for the course with lefties. Usually however it involves receiving things from others.

You call this underhanded yet on the surface it appears politically smart.

Seeing how you don't anything about what has actually happened, why do you say that? Perry is a swamp creature.
