What I’m about to say, some may find offensive. But, often times, it’s also the Truth. Dr Ben Carson, an extraordinary surgeon, doesn’t have a clue about the job Trump picked him to do and Republicans, kissing Trump’s butt, confirmed him to do. At least Dr Carson admitted it.✅it

but secbencarson doesn't know any better. He looked foolish and appears to not care because Trump is taking care of him.

Porter wrote the book.

She’s a Racist

Why do you always make GOP Executives appear so incompetent by asking them questions about their responsibilities? So unfair.

We are certainly living in the twilight zone

The more important question is 💥WHAT ARE YOU ALL GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?💥

Yeah it was disaster, he not well equipped to be head on HUD. He should go back being a doctor & saving lives.

Scary .

Katie Porter is a true (S)hero! Smart as a whip too! Have loved watching her tear Mnuchin a new one also! They go up against our female Representatives so ill-prepared for the inqueries they put them thru. Reps. come prepared and ready to put them to shame.

SHE should have been around over 9 years ago. SHE would have had a field day of INCOMPETENT answers just with MERS and pass-through securities BS. THAT was ONE BIG Obama failure to address.

I SAW THE MEETING AND CARSON LOOKED AND SOUNDED LIKE A FOOL! HE WAS RUDE AND IGNORANT!

Carson isn't competent. He should resign. This administration hires incompetent people. Just need to be unqualified, willing to lie, be loyal and praise POTUS is all your resume needs to work at WH.

RepKatiePorter is absolutely right about that I don't the idiot SecretaryCarson could've even given his own name!!!

Another lackey job gift. Just like the Party Planer in charge of Urban Housing. We have NO ONE in jobs with knowledge or experience. He didn't drain the swamp, he filled it.

Except maybe when the chair of the financial services committee, Maxine Waters, when questioning bankers about student loans had no clue that the government took over student loans years ago.

That's because he's incompetent. Just like the rest of the cabinet & the rest.

And as you know Trump knows the best people. Consider what level that Trump sets that bar.

LOL. Hes literally a brain surgeon. It's not his fault you dont understand his answers.

Socialist Dems Fake News Cheerleader MSNBC on the move with more Fake News!

That’s why he’s the secretary you’re not. He doesnt need to know the every detail of the question you asked because that was your job, not his.

Iq below zero!

That’s racist

He gave zero competent answers because he is incompetent.

Ben Carson... Why stop there! “Any trump appointee...gave zero competent answers about any topic at all in the last two plus years.” You are welcome.

She’s way too old for me

She ROCKS!

Ben Carson confuses real estate term REO for Oreo cookieHousing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson mistook the real estate term REO for an Oreo cookie when being questioned by Rep. Katie Porter (D-Calif) during a House Financial Services Committee hearing. Carson later tweeted a response to the incident poking fun at himself. 'Mishears?' Stop your cowering nonsense right now. Everyone with a brain and spine can see Carson has no fucking clue as to the details of the post he's pretending to hold. Thanks for failing your one job... just as embarrassing as 'Secretary' Carson's performance. SMFH I could hardly believe what a buffoon he is. 2.5yrs and he still doesn't know his job. He had such a smug look on his face. One bright bulb you got there
