"I am pleased to announce the nomination of @RepRatcliffe to be Director of National Intelligence ," Trump said on Twitter."Would have completed process earlier, but John wanted to wait until after IG Report was finished.
Read MoreLoyalty has been something Trump has focused on as he looked for a candidate for the permanent job -- during conversations about the role with potential nominees, the President has attempted to assess how loyal they would be to him should they be nominated and confirmed for the job, two sources told CNN. Trump was looking for a pick who would back his mandate, explained one of the sources.
Good choice and FIRE DON LEMON!!!
And how much experience does he have to head National Security? Oh, yes NONE. The only experience one needs to be in tramp's cabinet is how to kiss his ass..
As an average British person I cannot understand how the American people and the Republican party can be comfortable with how Their President behaves : wont reveal his Taxes - surely he should be showing how he and his business contributes to the Economy, makes things up
Is this guy another tool in the shed?
Imagine!!!!!! How retarded can it get..
Another Trumper. National Intelligence is now an oxymoron.
There’s no permanent job in WH all acting like POTUS
Is Ratcliffe yet another pro-war lobbyist?
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Just a lap dog
👏👏👏👏👏👏
Rat & cliff... One of the most deadly things to humans til this day. What could possibly go wrong, right
No no no!!
Of course he is ! He’s totally qualified. You have to be intelligent to know how to throw rats off cliffs. And that’s how he got his name!
Trump doesn't care about keeping us safe.
Oh joy
No surprise! One unethical president nominates one unethical director of intelligence. Birds of a feather. rattyratcliff trumplies
Another dement chosen.
Michael Scott’s evil cousin?
Oooh, I loved him in 40y/o virgin! 🤣
Doesn’t matter who’s nominated - the Dems & media hacks will hate anyone nominated
‘Permanent ‘ 🤣 people change in that WH faster than 70,000 people in China got sick!
Fail
Grrreat!
another Trump puppet has no clue what this job consist of has no experience in intelligence work or agency (on the job training is not agood thing for this country)
Another great pick Donnie !
well, the suck up got what he was bidding to get
That ballbager?
Ratcliffe and intelligence are oxymorons.
CNNisTrash TrumpRallyCharleston
Let it do so.
Not until after the 2020 election.
Legitimately thought that was Steve Carell in the thumbnail
Within 6 mos this guy will be out of a JOB...it’s how it goes under Trumpy
Permanent is relative with this administration, amirite?
Ratliffe is not qualified or competent in the field of intelligence. Just a stooge for Trump.
Do not trust politicians from Texas! I live here - I ought to know. 😧
Inept Political hack.
Jared's not available?
Good deal
Too have someone that a brain eating Zombie would ignore to head that department show the lack of intelligence Trump has. Zombies would starve if only Trump supporters were in the USA.
Great pick this man , a good one!!
Again? Really?
We are doomed even more now than we were doomed an hour ago...the doom clock is ticking and it’s not going to stop until Trump is gone.....
Let's face it there's no way to appoint a qualified person who has demonstrated loyalty to Trump. No qualified competent individual would be loyal to this ass.
Again,?
I give him 10 days
As John Ratcliffe director of intelligence, we will have to verify his qualifications. I'd rather have John Bolton replaced the unemployed with the intelligence chief than the stupid John Ratcliffe.
Trump second Ukraine scandal is about to start again.
He is Trump's loyal dog as Trump American blacklisting and incompetent to suggest a stupid way to approach Cuba in the past.
Yesssss
🤣🤣🤣
Trump 2020! Libs start your crying now.
Talk about an oxymoron!
He probably found a missing toy under his kids’ bed. All the qualification he needs for such an important job.
Oh, another fake resume? Only the best, NOT!
realDonaldTrump SecPompeo GOP Trump, great Job for nominating John Ratcliffe for director of DNI. Thank you for making Democrats& media go crazy. It’s time for you to make these a holes Democrats&media’s lives miserable for what they did to you past 3 yrs.
again? did he somehow become LESS qualified?
For intelligence? Seems an oxymoron.
Hired to be fired
Ever get the feeling he throws out a cowpie first to ease the path for the next guy?
'intelligence' is now an oxymoron I guess 🤣🤣
the best people.
Well chief idiot in charge is certainly maintaining to hire the most incompetent people available. Of course having a controllable puppet is certainly more important than national security. 🤪🤮
TRUMP is just hiring lackeys and crooks these days. Where the best people at? 😂
Not to add to the Coronavirus panic, but there already is a terrible epidemic disease ravaging America. In the worst cases, it results in hysteria, loss of brain function and inability to control one’s mouth. That disease is TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome.)
BorrelliGerlach So he can he humiliated twice?
Obviously a piece of wood was too intelligent for this job so pick what is next in line
Is that Michael Scott?
Was Mickey Mouse not available.
I thought that was Michael Scott
You have to be intelligent first
This just in, Trump just hired a new director of finance, his cashier from McDonalds because he hooked him up with extra sauce. Apparently he knows the best numbers.
Congrats to John Ratcliffe for waiting out the DNI position until the administration had sunk low enough that his lack of qualifications are now sufficient to be re-nominated....!
