AITA for thinking Senate Republicans are speedrunning the “How to turn the US into a monarchy” DLC?
So, buckle up, buttercups. The GOP Senate just “efficiently” (read: with the urgency of a toddler who just drank a full can of Red Bull) rammed through a bunch of Trump’s nominees for, like, every cabinet position that requires a pulse. The strategy? “Just ignore the background checks, lmao. We vibe with the orange man.”
TL;DR: Senate GOP went “vibes over vetting,” confirmed a Secretary of Defense who thinks the Geneva Convention is “suggestive literature” and an Energy Secretary who was last seen screaming at a wind turbine for “blocking his aura.” Meanwhile, the Dems are just standing there like that Spiderman meme, pointing and going “Wait, you’re supposed to investigate the felon’s picks?”
I, for one, am fully prepared for our new Chairman of the Federal Reserve to be some guy named Cletus who learned economics from a Monopoly board. We’re no longer a democracy, we’re a bit. A very, very loud, NPC-filled bit.
Verdict: NTA. You’re just living in the timeline where the adults are on a permanent coffee break and the kids are running the government into a ditch. 🍿
