Even if that's true (and I don't concede that it is) he wrote the Virginia Plan and was a Founder of the country.
Positions of troop leadership during the Revolution were "of significant authority."
Nope.TWENTY YEARS LATER
Hamilton distinguished himself before he was 22, and was a Lt. Colonel and Aide to Washington.Hamilton had no leadership position higher than that of a company commander
Yes, I do. You do too. You know this makes no sense. He has no relevant experience. None. ZERO. It's just a bad decision. Reckless and stupid.No, I don't and neither do you.
Maybe in some other role, where the consequences of failure were not so significant.People are much more than their age, as were so many of the Founders of the country who were in their 20's. This guy might fail or succeed. I'm content to find out.
No, its just another example - of which we have far too many - where Trump has proven himself to be an incompetent president.To the left, he's just an opportunity to focus on personalities instead of issues.
Nope.

According to you guys, the country should have given no attention to either one of them because of their ages, or because they hadn't been "in government" for years in their 20's. They were merely very bright and very dedicated.
What is the necessary "relevant experience" to do a coordination and grant issuance job?He has no relevant experience.
Nor directly, we're not. The country doesn't prevent terrorism for $18 million a year. It gets emails moved between other groups for that amount of money (less the grants, of course).But we are talking about terrorism prevention here.
LMAO!!Trump has proven himself to be an incompetent president.
What? Madison or Hamilton?Sorry, ELEVEN years later.
It's demonstrating to leadership that one has the intelligence and dedication to take on a position. And I wish you'd quit acting like the job is the leadership of a key intelligence organization. It's an appointment by Trump of someone who isn't a lifer at Foggy Bottom; BFD.Is being an aide the same thing as being given control over an entire federal program?

The Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships (CP3) is a division of the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Established in 2021 to replace the Office of Targeted Violence and Terrorism Prevention (TVTP), CP3 is charged with coordinating with federal, state, and local government agencies, non-profit organizations, and other stakeholders to fund, research, and otherwise facilitate the prevention of terrorism, including administering DHS's TVTP Grant Program.[What is the necessary "relevant experience" to do a coordination and grant issuance job?
And when did he get that experience?he was 36 and had extensive experience in government.
And when did he get that experience?
Look. You know jack-shit about the appointee and, apparently, the same about the job. You're just tickled to have the chance to bitch about something else. So go tell someone who cares.
None. But your friend, Baba Voss, posted a description of the job and I venture that even you could do it.What secret information do you have about the appointee that shows his qualifications?
Or are you another mindless cultist who can’t tolerate any action by Trump no matter how they benefit the country? (Don't bother to answer. We already know.)Or are you another mindless cultist who can’t criticize any of Der Fuhrer’s decisions no matter how stupid they are?
Remember his recent pick for Surgeon General, who quit her residency, and has no license to practice medicine in any state?Typical Trump incompetent hire. No surprise here.
You have no idea what you are talking about. I posted a Wikipedia entry that describes the functions of that office. It was not a job description of the head of that office. Not my any stretch.None. But your friend, Baba Voss, posted a description of the job and I venture that even you could do it.
If only that confidence could be reciprocated.None. But your friend, Baba Voss, posted a description of the job and I venture that even you could do it.

Or wanting his private pilot to head the FAA, or nominating former demoted retired Captain Ronny Jackson to head the VA?
Good job MAGA voters
"The inexperienced 22-year-old reportedly tasked by Donald Trump with tackling U.S. extremism was working as a neighborhood gardener just five years ago and in a grocery store as recently as August 2023, the Daily Beast can reveal.
Thomas Fugate, who graduated from the University of Texas at San Antonio just 12 months ago, is currently heading up the Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships at the DHS, as first reported by ProPublica Tuesday.
...
But according to the youngster’s LinkedIn page, Fugate has almost no experience in this field—and in 2020 was working as a self-employed ‘Landscape Business Owner.’
...
Fugate set up a political Instagram account last year, where his profile contains the motto, “Men used to do great things. I believe they still can."
Mash-up between The West Wing and The Apprentice as scripted by later-period PK Dick.This is a joke, right?
Or his CJCS, our first ever CJCS to have never made four stars.
Or his National Security Advisor who couldn't work out how to add contacts correctly to the consumer app with no OPSEC to speak of that he should have known better than to be using to discuss military operations.
Or his Secretary of Defense, Director of National Intelligence, Director of the CIA, Secretary of the Treasury, and Secretary of State who all violated the Federal Records Act.
Or his Secretary of Education who apparently doesn't know how to multiply by 10.
And on …The list goes on.
That's cool, though I'm not sure how that's relevant to the topic.James Madison was 25 in 1776. Alexander Hamilton was 21. The Marquis deLa Fayette was 18.
Security experts with years of experience, maybe?Who does before they do?
James Madison was 25 in 1776. Alexander Hamilton was 21. The Marquis deLa Fayette was 18.
Oh yes, those are Trump classics.Remember his recent pick for Surgeon General, who quit her residency, and has no license to practice medicine in any state?
