Carson not interested in serving in Trump administration

"Dr. Carson feels he has no government experience, he's never run a federal agency. The last thing he would want to do was take a position that could cripple the presidency."

this guy ran for President!

you cant make this shit up. much like the emails of Clinton, the retardation of Donald Trump. it's amazing.

this guy in an interview doesnt like the electoral and thinks it should be popular.. then tweets

Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 7h7 hours ago
The Electoral College is actually genius in that it brings all states, including the smaller ones, into play. Campaigning is much different!

:lol:

Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 7h7 hours ago
If the election were based on total popular vote I would have campaigned in N.Y. Florida and California and won even bigger and more easily

:lol: :lol:

Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump Nov 13
Mitt Romney called to congratulate me on the win. Very nice!

What? You don't think the campaign would have been totally different if it were based on popular vote? He would still have been crazy but he would have spent time in states that are ignored by Republicans with the electoral college. Swinging a few points in California or New York means nothing in the electoral college but is huge for the popular vote.

There's 2 great tweets he made about the popular vote and how we should have a revolution because Obama won in I think 2012 without winning the popular vote.

Bush and Trump are the only president's in modern times not to win the popular vote and win the election.

Gotcha. Looks like he made the tweet early in the night when it appeared that Obama may not get the popular vote.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/fac ... to-genius/

Trump in 2012:
“He [Obama] lost the popular vote by a lot and won the election. We should have a revolution in this country!” (Nov. 6)

“The phoney [sic] electoral college made a laughing stock out of our nation. The loser one!” (Nov. 6)

“More votes equals a loss…revolution!” (Nov. 7)

This election is a total sham and a travesty. We are not a democracy!

Trump today:
The Electoral College is actually genius in that it brings all states, including the smaller ones, into play. Campaigning is much different!

Why even bother with elections? Think of all the time, money and drama we'd save by just turning the government over to Goldman Sachs.

he's just a wild self promoter. not very open minded to other views other than his own and screams as loud as possible to get attention and push his agenda.

he's sort of like Miami's version of Michael Moore

Trump taking a congratulatory call from the Taiwan president seems to be getting more publicity than the Obama administration selling $1.83 billion of weapons to Taiwan less than 1 year ago.

Good times!!!
