Top-notch as far as satire goes. Bit of a shame is that it isn't satire, though.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I thought for sure this was from The Onion. What a clusterfuck.
Same. I had to triple check what sub this was.
It's harder for satire to get ahead when reality is better at it.
Reality keeps becoming satire.
Waiting for Steven Seagal to get some kinda foreign relations/military position
He’d be the ambassador to Russia.
I’m wondering about Hulk Hogan though.
John Stewart suggested Hogan would be secretary of ‘TAKE YOUR VITAMINS!'
I'm thinking something family related, cause everyone's his brother
The Administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) handles:
- Medicare
- Medicaid
- the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)
- the Affordable Care Act (ACA) health insurance Marketplaces
They are also in charge of:
- Setting the health insurance portability standards for the United States
- The administrative end of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)
- Setting the Federal quality standards in long-term care (nursing homes)
- Clinical laboratory quality standards under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) of 1988
So it's not just Medicare and Medicaid, but millions of people within the ACA and including seven million children in CHIPs that he'll be overseeing. Not to mention setting the standards of care for millions of people in nursing homes.
You mean the same ACA that they plan on abolishing. It'll be hilarious watching his voters when the leopards get to the eating. It'll give everyone over here on SSDI Island a preview of the end times.
With a clown in charge, we have nothing to expect but a circus.
Life is a fever dream. I'd really like to wake up now
Barrel full of Monkeys: Trumps Cabinet.
Who would have thought that television from the 00’s would be politics in the 20’s?
