in the last news cycle we've heard from Mourning Joe, CIA mofo Brennan, and tired but decent Joe Lieberman about how unsuitable Ratcliffe is for Director of National Intelligence.

1. This is President Trump's privilege to choose. Presudent Trump got stuck with the children in cages problem but the media never even whispered about this until they could stick it on Trump.

2.
Doddering old farts like Coates are ready to kick the bucket anyway. Aside from being mired in decades old thinking, they were appointed when 9/11 had a grip on people that has leveled off somewhat.

3. Maybe Trump saw The Mueller hearings and decided to get the Geritol generation out the door before they flapped and fell to the floor.

But the most important thing critics and media aren't mentioning is one teensy weensy factor. And its probably the most important fact.

Senate clearing process works because it invites suggestions that there is "someone better" Trump might pick.
Um.. who?

I haven't heard one single suggestion that would make all this fantasy administration team picking as high minds as it sounds.
Somehow showing loyalty to Trump during the Mueller hearings is supposed to be a negative. Why?

But the media and every single critic of Ratcliffe's nomination forgets to state the elephant in the room:

98% of all those eminently more qualified wouldn't take the job.
They wouldn't work for Trump

Not one of the ppl flapping their gums about Ratcliff have one suggestion to make. Because there is none.

Anybody who should take the job won't. Anybody who wants it, will manipulate the process and likely will criticise the Presidents choice to set themself up.

And anybody who might be best choice in the fantasy football
dreamland has another job.

Or most likely is unwilling to put themselves or their family into the meat grinder and face the unreasonable and excessive abuse the press is waiting to serve up.

Trump saw Ratcliffe cut through the cr ap during the Old Yeller Hearings. So why not put him where he can do the most good.?

*And why must we call them "hearings" when the poor old dear couldn't hear most of the time?*

Both swamp creatures and the press continue to behave as if this was any other President and they pretend that this "Best candidate" they all speak of would come forward to serve , even if anybody knew who this Cinderella was.

So President Trump picked someone who not only showed him loyalty, but showed that in the glare of global press attentIon wouldn't back down.

Exactly the right guy for the job.
