Another supremely unqualified joke of a nominee gets the Trump nod. From Joyce Vance:

Trump 2.0 looks like it will be as full of grift as the first administration was. This gentleman, Massad Boulos, is Trump’s pick to be his Middle East advisor. He just coincidentally happens to be Tiffany Trump’s father-in-law. He is not an experienced natural security expert, but he was born in Lebanon and holds citizenship in four countries. Boulas says he has not visited the region in years.

According to a report in the New York Times, Boulos told a reporter in October that his company is worth billions, and Trump called him a “highly respected leader in the business world, with extensive experience on the international scene.” But it turns out the company he runs for his father-in-law, selling trucks and heavy equipment in Nigeria, made a profit of less than $66,000 last year.

That’s who Trump will turn to for advice in the highly volatile area, where there is a possibility of peace but also a possibility of more, and more expansive, war. The selection would be laughable if it weren’t a critical point in a critical part of the world with a president who has little to no substantive knowledge about foreign policy stakes or the region.

I think Trump should get the most money.

Followed by Don Junior and Eric as they've been loyal.

Then Tiffany, because I think she's hot as hell and I'd love about 90 seconds between me, her, and some baby oil.


After that, "Jared Kushner" because "Jared Kushner" really makes Progressives happy.



After that, if Boulous gets a cut, so be it.


One correction: It ain't high school and I'm pushing 50. Make it about 120 seconds, not 90.

It is a symbolic position with a 6 figure salary. Everyone knows that Trump's real Middle East Advisor is Mohamed Bone Saw.
