Everyone around that Cabinet table with Trump is either insane, a true fascist, or has sold their soul just to be at that table. They're just the worst people.

@petergleick @briankrebs You suggest it is either/or with those descriptions. Most have at least two out of three.

@petergleick - they all better hope they're all granted blanket immunity before he dies, or its going to be the Nuremberg trials all over again.
It's that, or have a nice dacha outside of Moscow to 'retire' to.

@petergleick#HillaryClinton warned us about the Clown Cabinet of sycophants in the #Trump#Kakistocracy. She called it a #BasketOfDeplorables.

Super concentrated wrongness.

You would expect dark swirling clouds above the building with lightning and sulfuric mist wisping out of tiny cracks in the ground and mad cackling sounds in the background.

It is a kind of nexus of everything that is going wrong between people.
