I'm not being picky. It's just a weird cabinet appointment (for anybody but Trump).
I've watched and listened to Ben Carson over the last two years and think he's an effin' fruitcake; I wouldn't put him in charge of any government agency for that reason alone.
And, just because I traveled and did business in several different countries for business when I was in my 20s and 30s, doesn't make me any more qualified to be Secretary of State than Carson is to be head of HUD because he spent some of his childhood years in a housing project, in my opinion.
A wacky retired neurosurgeon, author, and FOX commentator with zero government or housing experience doesn't seem like the best candidate to head the government agency. But, he was loyal to Trump and I know rewarding loyalty is a factor in the Trump administration cabinet picks.
Anyway, maybe Carson will do fine. I hope so. But, I won't be surprised if he jumps ship in a short amount time. His own comments and demeanor made me think he's not really interested in the job.
