DJT, Nikki, Jeb, Mitt, Marco, McCain, Bush 43, Dick Cheney, Ted Cruz. Christie. It doesn't matter who the R president would be. They would all have been on the RDS list. Like now, everyday would have been a pouting excersie in tandem with tantrums and feet stomping with link after link to nothing by all the usual Dem Marxists here and in the MSM. You children need to behave and wait your turn when it comes to winning public office.

Trump expressed disappointment that Powell was ever appointed to lead the independent agency ‒ even though it was Trump who in 2017 nominated Powell to Fed's board of governors during his first term.
“He’s a terrible Fed chair. I was surprised he was appointed," Trump said, falsely accusing his predecessor, former President Joe Biden, of appointing Powell. "I was surprised, frankly, that Biden put him in and extended him, but they did."
