    If anyone is wondering the connection:

    This guy had internships at the Heritage Foundation and did some service as a special assistant in a DHS immigration office.

    Heritage foundation strikes again with installing young puppets.

      I'm confused, this reads like an argument, but you're making the same point.

          I'mma quote from the post you responded to, maybe you can help me see what I'm missing.

          …I guess my point is that gardening and entry-level-grocery are completely fine and expected experience for a 22 year old; but that no 22 year old could have the experience to do well as a leader in terror prevention. So, there’s a distinction between criticizing the absence of experience (justified), vs criticizing someone for having actual experience in an unrelated field (bullshit).

          Where does your argument contradict that?

            Also, as a former bartender, there is a lot of politics involved in that job. You're in charge of a bunch of (hopefully temporary) morons. There's risk assessment and mediation happening, controlling a bunch of people who are adverse to rules and being told no. Geopolitics isn't that far from breaking up a fight in a bar. But he doesn't have any of that comparable experience.

                wonder what kind of internship, doesnt look like his major/degree is anything useful, certainly not a lawyer to be judge material for the foundation.

                  I mean being 22 and having that work history is pretty relevant. How else are they going to make the case that he's nowhere near qualified enough for the position?

                          Honestly, I wouldn't bother at this point. We're in the react portion, not the prediction phase.

                              You say your point and their point are different, and I'm not seeing the differences? From my end, it looks like you're saying the same thing, just with different words.

                                Even if this guy had served in military intelligence for 4 years he would still be too inexperienced for this role.

                                  Obvious lack of experience and not qualified for the position.

                                  Ex-Gardener and Grocery Store Assistant

                                  Completely irrelevant, and not something to criticize. God forbid people get a shit starter job when they're joining the work force.

                                  The rise from starter job to top government official usually includes things like gaining experience, having some success, being a noteworthy professional in some way....

                                  Not... Nothing?

                                    I mean normally, I say if they communicated the message then they did all write even if they misspeeled a word or two. The juxtaposition of this makes the ironing so delicious though.

                                        If you wanted more terrorist attacks on your soil in order to justify suspending the constitution, this is exactly how you’d go about it.
