    Let me preface this with “Fuck the trump cabinet, they are both evil and unqualified”.

    But the thing I never understood is the need to have people with Degrees in leadership positions. A PHD doesn’t exactly mean you are smart or a good leader, it just means you were privileged enough to study for 7+ years without starving. Especially since the degrees usually barely overlap with their respective areas.

    The only thing it brings us is a bunch of rich privileged assholes in charge that all have never worked a job other than “business consultant” in their lives.

      PhD programmes are almost always paid. You usually need a masters or at least a bachelors to get selected for one, but in civilised countries those are free / subsidised too.

      But I agree that a doctoral degree shouldn’t be a requirement to hold a leadership position. A leader can always ask advisors about things they themselves do not know about.

    Does the current US administration have a ‘best’ to send? It really seems like we should be framing this as ‘least worst’ and even that phrasing confers too much positivity.

    Doctoral candidates still have around 1% chance of success in my country. Academia is more often a way of expressing niche knowledge, and it represents a different can of worms. Things like grade inflation, ivy league nepotism aren’t even addressing the problematic areas of higher education. But anyway, the areas of specialization are too narrow to be broadly celebrated as leadership qualities. Given the unreformed state of islam, It is more than likely that religious bodies in Iran selected their negotiation team for their work ethic, since most of their government officers are easily distributed along similar religious and political lines. The PhDs in Iran’s team do not contribute to their own specialization because doctorate work requires ultimate devotion, unless they’re willing to fail and join the 99% of candidates.

    It’s not a PhD but the Centcom commander “is a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy and earned a master’s degree in Strategic Intelligence from the National Intelligence University. He studied international relations at Harvard and Tufts Universities,” so while I’m not a fan of him or anything, on paper at least he’s not as totally unqualified as the the other three morons.

      Look, nobody’s perfect. I’m sure once Hegseth finds out he’ll quickly rectify his mistake and kick him out in favor of a less qualified sycophant.

    I bet you those americans pose like it’s nobody’s business though. All the current us power folks seem to be in cosplay mode. Acting like what they see on TV, not acting like real people.

      Just another swampbaby nepobaby:

      Netanyahu has long been a friend of the Kushners, and particularly Jared’s dad, Charles Kushner, a major donor to pro-Israel and Jewish causes. One time, Kantor reports – she doesn’t specify when – Jared gave up his bed and moved to the basement so Netanyahu could spend the night at their home in Livingston, New Jersey.

        Jared Kushner would be useful enough as a fencepost you would just need a whole lot of them to make a fence obviously.
