Puzder to withdraw labor secretary nomination, as Team Trump fails and flails

Just to be clear NR is a repub news site ya?

Establishment plutocrat Republicans, rather than the theocrats and Klansmen that form the bulk of the base.

Still evil, but Romney-evil rather than Trump-evil.

I’m honestly baffled by this one.

Sure, by sane standards, a fast food taskmaster with a severely sketchy history on labor relations is a terrible choice for labor secretary; but I assume that his vices were sort of the point in this case. What kind of horrible defects does he have that make him untenable when DeVos was apparently worth ramming through?

He was a bit too pro-immigration for many GOPpers, as well as being too anti-labour for Democrats.

Lovely. Acosta has a connection to Jeffrey Epstein (a buddy of Trump’s, shockingly)

If he’s appointing a corrupt crony, then this makes sense.

Thank you for assuaging my fears that Donald Trump has been replaced with an imposter.

Wait.

Wait, no.

I want those fears back!

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!
