So who's next for the Cabinet of Dr. Caligari*?

[Ocelot II]

Does Don Jr. have an official job yet? Peter Navarro for Commerce? Housing and Urban Development needs a Black person because, you know, "urban," so Tim Scott or Marc Robinson? Send in the clowns....

* The film, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, "thematises brutal and irrational authority. Writers and scholars have argued the film reflects a subconscious need in German society for a tyrant, and is an example of Germany's obedience to authority and unwillingness to rebel against deranged authority." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cabinet_of_Dr._Caligari

[Sympthsical]

1. Rubio's the Secretary of State nominee

Probably because he's pretty vociferously anti-China.

3. He might be the only even marginally sane one of the bunch,

but can he be confirmed if he's never been accused of sexual assault?

[Prairie Gates]

6. Nancy Mace is introducing a bill stating that all Cabinet officers can only pee from the gallery

down onto the House floor.

2. The Post had an article about a sheriff that raped an 11-year old and then covered it up. He's in jail pending

sentencing (which has been delayed 12 times). He'd probably be a good choice for a Trumpian Candidate?

[Prairie Gates]

4. He nominated Marco Rubio for SecState

Treasury is open, and an open question.

Education is open, but apparently they are going to shut that down, so tra la!

[Ocelot II]

5. You're right; I'd forgotten because Rubio is just unqualified

instead of certifiably insane.

7. Heh-heh. Good one!

A couple of people haven't received their "rewards" yet for stumping for Trump or otherwise selling their souls:

MTG
Tim Scott
Byron Donalds

And then there are the weird background people. Maybe they won't get cabinet posts but we need to keep our eyes out:

Mike Flynn
Mike Lindell
His creepy female lawyer who became more of a performer at his rallies than a serious lawyer
Steve Bannon (will probably always be a behind the scenes guy)
Russel Vought
Kevin Roberts

8. Nah this is more like a 2024 re-boot of "The Celebrity Apprentice" than the

Cabinet of Dr. Caligary.

D-list celebrities and corrupt politicians in a Trump “reality show.”

9. Great film

It’s available on YouTube, and worth a watch. Very expressionistic and moody, with a twist ending.

Also a fitting comparison, since Caligari’s cabinet contained a sleepwalker 😆

10. Must be more coming. The Capitol-attacking Shaman is still available. nt
