Hey, when is the last time you rode (if you even do ride)? Maybe you need to go get a ride day in, it will do wonders for your outlook on life. I went to Cahuilla Saturday and it was much needed. Even took out the Bayle inspired skid lid.IMG 8447 copy

Ah yes....the old "do you even ride" argument......when there is no real response. 

 

It's actually amazing just how much self awareness you lack.

You are the biggest cry baby bitch on here and aren't man enough to engage with anyone who has disagreed with you yet you think you have the high ground to talk shit about someone not having a real response?

He is no BS and pulls no punches in front of a camera and microphone. As an actual leader, what is his biggest accomplishment? What job has he performed well in that you can point to and argue that the things that made him successful there will translate to this? Be specific. 

There are competent people out there who share the vision who would be so much better picks for all these jobs but they don't give Trump and his followers the warm fuzzy feelings so they don't even try to find them...... 

I think you're overlooking one aspect about this appointment, they're now working for a guy that is showing if you're not doing your job...Your Fired!   It's comical that you're tossing shade at people here because the only thing they know about the guy is from behind a mic, or in front of a camera.  The same could easily be said about you.  And who are you exactly, to ask us to be specific about his accomplishments or successes, or much less be any type of authority on what constitutes a competent Deputy Director. Give the guy a chance, he may surprise you.

I'm bored today so just want to lay out the timeline of this well qualified outsider non swamp creature

1992 graduated high school

1995-1999 NYPD 

1999 joined Secret Service in NYC

2002 became Secret Service training academy instructor. I'll let you think about whether this mostly administrative position is part of the swamp, and whether or not people usually end up in teaching positions because they're so badass at their job or for other reasons. Surely he didn't take this position at such a young age because he had political aspirations?

2006 - 2011 presidential protection unit. 

2011 leaves job, leverages it to run for senate, dabbles in media

2012 loses senate election. 

2013 writes book 

2014 loses congressional election

2016 writes book and loses another congressional election in a different state. Political career effectively over, pivots to media full time

2019 writes Trump book, launches website

2021 takes over rush limbaugh show, gets own fox news show after previously just being regular contributor

2023 writes book

2025 named deputy director of FBI.

If this were anything but a white guy's resume you all know exactly what you'd be saying about it....  stop clowning yourselves by supporting people like this and arguing that well actually he's super duper qualified....

Fair enough. 

How many unqualified folks that were on the Biden team did you support though?

The whole problem with our country is that everyone just wants to drink the jizz for their team and doesn't really care about what's good for America.

How long do you guys think he will stick around for in this position?

Anyone think he will last Trumps full term?

If he pledges absolute blind loyalty to Trump, as he demands, Bongino will be fine.

None. Hated the guy and most everyone he appointed and disagree with his admin on most policy issues.

My problem is I actually believe in conservative and libertarian principles and believe that if presented to people in honest and competent ways that they'd be wildly popular. But instead when the party who in theory would implement these policies gets control they immediately remind everyone how unserious and unprincipled they actually are and defend it by pointing out that other side did it too. Four years later this approach will be predictably rejected, again, and it will be liberals turn to shit all over everything. So enjoy the warm fuzzy feelings from the guy you like on TV getting a job that makes the people you don't like mad but don't kid yourself into thinking this is change or draining the swamp or any of it. It's not.

Academy instructor for the Secret Service, assigned to the Presidential protection unit, ran for a Senate seat, takes over a nationally syndicated radio show, a regular commentator on the most watched news show of all current media, not to mention getting his own show.  From the looks of it, pretty impressive.  And you're a poser-poster on a moto-board...yeah, you're much more qualified.

Completely serious. We might not always agree, but have never had a pissing match. Seems to me he’s gotten a little sucked in by the temperature of this board.

And honestly that temperature sucks lately. It’s giving me a headache.

If this were a black female's resume and she was appointed to the same job by Biden you'd lose your mind about DEI. If you can't admit that you'd criticize these qualifications in that situation you're just not being honest. 

Bongino is unqualified. It's that simple. 

Biden hired clowns because of DEI, Trump is hiring them to "drain the swamp." DEI and draining the swamp are both fine in theory, but hiring clowns regardless of the rationale is a problem. If you can only see the problem when the other side does it.... you might also be a clown.

Whether or not DB meets your qualifications and criteria to be Deputy Director is up to you.  If he doesn’t, I respect your right to your opinion.  From my point of view, I had 0 (ZERO) confidence that with Chris Wray (who I’m sure you believe to be super duper qualified) at the helm of the FBI, we would EVER find out the truth about the Jan 6 Pipe Bomber, not because he wasn’t qualified to figure it out but because the SOB surely knows and was never going to let the identity of that person be known, aka a cover up.

With Kash and DB running the show now, I at least have some hope that incident will be exposed for the back up plan that it was.  You may not or probably don’t care about that but it IS a BFD as part of what went down on Jan 6.  If you don’t care about finding out the whole truth, then that’s on you.

I also feel better about actual crimes and criminals being investigated than Catholics and other denominations of religion being harassed just because…

Anything beyond that is a plus for me.  I may not be a Dr of anything but I’m not oblivious to what law and order should look like.

Keep on complaining, more changes are coming.

No, but you still remain an illiterate jackass.

Steve, I respect your opinion. It’s very different from several folks here, for certain.

I was so hoping you’d respond with “I’m very serious. And don’t call me Shirley”

He might be a little more moderate, but I think he’s got “our” best interest in mind. I really can’t stand the delusional liberal left, nor the blind Trump worship. 

Just say no to, “Oligarchs”. 

I’m happy to see the swamp get drained. There’s still a lot of work to do, ie; people who’ve been in office for 20+ years, irregardless of which side of the aisle they reside.

We agree that the old regime sucked and should be replaced. We disagree on how to best replace them. My candidate pool would not include entertainers who 15 years ago briefly had some relevant experience.

Calling him an entertainer is a reach. I’ve tried to watch his show to no avail. Makes my head hurt.

Of course not, Bungers. My feelings aren’t hurt and I think for myself. I like to get many reasonable and rational views on various topics and make up my own mind as opposed to saying things like: “If you downvote me, it means you drink jizz”. That’s part of the reason for my description of you. Here’s the other part.

Oh you got me so good.  I hope you feel better about yourself cause we both know you need any amount of positivity you can get to make you feel better about yourself.

Let me know if you're going to any races this year, I'd love to grab a plane ticket and come buy you a beer.

No offense, but I don’t think you’re being sincere with that invite. It seems like you’re alluding to something rather sinister.

No offense, but I don’t think you’re being sincere with that invite. It seems like you’re alluding to something rather sinister. 

Nah, it'd be great to meet up in person so you can see that just because someone doesn't blindly follow and swear allegiance to the same things as you that they are still a decent person.

I also think it'd be cool to see if you're so quick to throw out insults like "illiterate jackass" in person.

I bet you're not and that would be a good thing.
