Brownback to Take Post In Trump Administration

Political Wire

Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback (R) will be named the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations for Food and Agriculture, the Kansas City Star reports.

“A possible appointment to the Trump administration for Brownback has been rumored since November, but the governor has been tight-lipped about his prospects. His office would not confirm the accuracy of the report from Kansas Public Radio when asked for comment late Wednesday afternoon.”

I'm sure they've got some equally batshit far right Christian taliban figure in the pipeline ready to win 75 percent of the vote in the next election. These blood red states have an endless supply of that type.

LOL.

If YOU were Brownback, in almost ANY OTHER JOB in America, you would have been FIRED YEARS AGO for incompetence. Your boss would not have cared about your "radical philosophy" of what was supposed to work. S/he would have looked at your RESULTS, and frog-marched you to the parking lot the next day with a box in your hands.

KANSAS, I am crossing my fingers FOR you.

UN ... so, soooo sorry.

Maybe Trump should look up the word Best. Didn't know that a one syllable word was beyond his comprehension level but obviously it is. SAD. LOSER.
