Donald Trump names and shames people who won't be joining his Cabinet
Share and Follow

Donald Trump sent a message of ‘out with the old, in with the new’ by naming and shaming many of his former Cabinet members while honoring his new administration.

The president-elect will officially return to the White House on Monday, with the Senate process of confirming several of his nominees already underway.

Trump congratulated his new administration employees in a Truth Social post Wednesday night, before ripping several of those who either worked for him during his first term or stopped supporting him.  

He wrote: ‘As of today, the incoming Trump Administration has hired over 1,000 people for The United States Government. They are outstanding in every way, and you will see the fruits of their labor over the coming years. We will MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and it will happen very quickly!’

Trump then advised any hiring managers that ‘it would be helpful if you would not send, or recommend to us, people who worked with, or are endorsed by’ a list of anti-Trump Republicans ‘in order to save time, money, and effort.’

He specifically named 11 different Republicans and first-term Trump employees, many of them coming with nicknames.

Trump played some of his hits, referring to ex-UN Ambassador and primary opponent Nikki Haley as ‘Birdbrain.’

He also singled out ‘disloyal warmongers Dick Cheney and his psycho daughter, Liz,’ referring to the former vice president and Wyoming Congresswoman who endorsed Harris.

Trump also said he had no use for those backed by first-term Vice President Mike Pence, who said he did not vote for Trump in November.

The group Americans for Prosperity was derided as ‘Americans for No Prosperity (headed by Charles Koch).’

He returned a familiar nickname, ‘Dumb as a Rock’ for ex-National Security Advisor John Bolton.

Trump has previously used that descriptor on Joe Biden, Rex Tillerson and Olivia Nuzzi.

He also claimed to not want to hear the opinions of Paul Ryan, Mark Milley, James Mattis or Mark Esper, whom he called ‘Yesper.’

Ryan was Speaker of the House for the first two years of the Trump administration, Mattis and Esper Secretary of Defense, Milley chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff,  

Trump also refused the help of ‘any of the other people suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome, more commonly known as TDS. Thank you for your attention to this matter!’

Each of Trump’s picks will be effectively on trial before the senators in the committees overseeing the federal agencies.

The hearings have live audiences, are televised and typically generate massive interest for the most controversial nominees. 

The cast includes multiple former Fox News personalities, several lawmakers, a couple of governors, politicos and corporate execs.  

Controversial stories potentially implicating some of these nominees have floated for months since the president-elect announced his selections after the election. 

These reports have been marinating in the minds of some lawmakers and – given the importance of these Cabinet roles – the senators will be eager to probe these sensitive areas to sniff out any bad apples. 

Before Trump takes the oath of office, he will get an opportunity to watch his picks stand up to Senate scrutiny and see if they have what it takes to look good on TV while defending his agenda to the bitter end.

The Senate currently has a 53 – 47 Republican majority, meaning Trump’s selections do have a slight advantage as each nominee needs a simple majority of 51 affirmative votes to get confirmed.

Still, many Republicans have been vocal about their disapproval of the president-elect’s selections, so nominees have been busy preparing their defenses.
