Donald Trump just told people what they wanted to hear in order to get votes. If he cuts job training programs, it won't be pretty.
"GOP extols worker training, then slashes funding
"....the air was filled with promises to help American workers keep pace with a changing world. Days after, the Senate Appropriations Committee approved new Republican cuts from funding for adult education and worker training — programs the GOP had embraced just a year ago."
Oh well. I certainly won't feel sorry for them if they voted for their own demise.
Same here. The birther in chief had/has a reputation that preceded him for all to see. They didn't believe him when he showed them who he really is, so let them wallow in whatever muck he and his cronies dish out.
Come on, River. I asked you who do you think should be on his cabinet. Instead, you just come back with a NYT link. That doesn't answer my question.
ETA: The article was all about global warming and a potential cabinet member who doesn't believe in it. That said, the following excerpt tells me that Obama is a hypocrite on this issue.
At the heart of Mr. Obama’s efforts to tackle climate change are a collection of E.P.A. regulations aimed at forcing power plants to significantly reduce their emissions of planet-warming carbon dioxide pollution. Mr. Trump cannot unilaterally cancel the rules, which were released under the 1970 Clean Air Act. But a legally experienced E.P.A. chief could substantially weaken, delay or slowly take them apart
-------------------------------------
If Obama was so concerned about global warming, then why didn't he secure the border? Why did he encourage more illegal immigration by dictating DACA? Then emboldened, he tried to dictate DAPA. Several states sued him over it and the Circuit Court sided with the states and issued an injunction against DAPA. Obama thumbed his nose at the injunction and kept doing DAPA until he was caught---then he stopped.
If he was so concerned about "emissions" and carbon footprints, then allowing 1 million legal immigrants into this country per year and untold numbers of illegals shows him to be a hypocrite.
Oh no, the liberals make another anti-Trump prediction... I guess they didn't realize the election is already over and same BS that was said earlier in the year is the SAME BS that you liberals are peddling right now... #crybaby...

You would attack any names I would put forth, so I'm not biting.
The point to having department heads is to defend the respective departments and work on the issues, not slash and burn.
And...just out of curiosity, how the heck did neurosurgeon Carson wind up head of housing? He's eminently qualified, really? Was it not trump who redlined blacks in his early days in RE?

Perry really takes the cake, though.
How do you know that I would "attack any names" that you would put forth? That's really presumptuous of you.
As for Carson---guess what? I, too, question his ability to run HUD.
As for Trump "redlining" --- sigh! This has been discussed over and over again. Right now you're just beating a dead horse with this. But...here goes --- Trump's father was running the company at the time. It was his father who made that decision. Trump's father wasn't the only company that got called out for doing so either.
"The people hit the hardest are a lot of the demographics that went heavily for Trump."
"Others who didn't take Trump literally may soon face the same dilemma. The Urban Institute estimated this month that under the partial repeal plan previously passed by Republicans in Congress, 30?million people would lose insurance,
Pre ACA we had 30 million uninsured, we still have 30 million uninsured..
