On Maddow. Rick Perry Believes He Will Be In Charge Of Oil Ind. At Dept. Of Energy.

[TheMastersNemesis]

Rick Perry cannot probably spell nuclear much less pronounce it. According to Rachel Maddow he thinks Department of Energy is all about oil and gas industry management. What could go wrong?

1. He's trending on twitter and just getting ripped, hammered and riotously ridiculed

Hilarious and horrific, simultaneously-

2. The previous two Energy Secretaries were PhDs in physics!!

One of them was a fucking Nobel Laureate in physics!!!!

Now we see how Drumpf feels about such things.

The Energy Department oversees all of the nuclear weapons and many national laboratories where such things are developed, plus where much other pure research happens. This includes places like Fermilab, the second largest particle physics lab on the planet. (Used to be the largest until the USA gave up on such endeavors.)

I weep for my country!

He is a Nobel Laureate and served as Barack Obama's first Energy Secretary.
