        He grew up in the projects in Detroit and worked his way out. He may know more than some coddled snowflake in a safe space

        What does aid to foreign countries have to do with HUD? He's a good choice. Give him a chance. If he fails then you can celebrate

        Ben Carson dispels the myth that surgeons are brilliant people daily. What, Ted Nugent, also from Detroit, wasn't available?

        A cabinet of antiwaxxer, climate change deniers, creationist and so on. This anti scientific trend will hurt the #USA on long term

        Wasn't #BenCarson that religiously damaged idiot who said that the pyramids were food storages? Poor #USA, you've got my pity.

        Well I hope the democracy in the #USA is stable enough to surive this phase of madeness. Everthing else is bleak.
