Former President Donald Trump's picks to assign for roles in his second administration are pretty frightening, with loyalty being the top priority. On Wednesday, we discussed Kash Patel, a potential choice to head the CIA if Lumpy gets his grubby hands on the White House keys again. "Yes, we are going to come after the people in the media," Patel said.

Lumpy aside, according to Axios, former First Lady Snuggle Bunny thinks former Fox News star Tucker Carlson would be a great choice as Trump's vice president.

Via Axios:

But here's an interesting twist: Melania Trump is an advocate for picking Tucker Carlson, the booted Fox News star. She thinks Carlson would make a powerful onstage extension of her husband, a source close to Trump told us. The former first lady has made few campaign appearances this time around — but a Trump-Carlson ticket might encourage her to hit the trail.

Trump, asked last month about Carlson as a potential V.P., said: "I like Tucker a lot. ... He's got great common sense."

The idea of Tucker Carlson has been discounted by many people close to Trump because they assume he'd never pick someone who could outshine him. And Trump's staff is convinced (correctly) that Carlson can't be controlled. But the two men talk a lot.

There is no word on whether Carlson would want to give up his cushy life to try to outrun Trump supporters through the corridors of the Capitol as they chant, "Hang Tucker Carlson!" or not. FFS, MAGA still hates Mike Pence for not taking a shit all over the Constitution to keep Trump in power. Geez, lady. Don't you have some flowers to rip out of the rose garden or something? GTFO.

I'll leave you with this to motivate you to get out and vote.

Stephen Miller: He could be your next attorney general and, if not that, get a Cabinet-level role to greatly influence immigration policy.
