Is Cheeto capable of doing ANYTHING right?

For those who are disinclined to click on the linked article and read it in full, the following excerpt is pretty telling:

The Wall Street Journal reported a couple of weeks ago, “Over 100 U.S. ambassador posts around the world are sitting empty in the Trump administration, a vacancy rate without modern precedent and one that some current and former officials warn is hamstringing U.S. diplomatic power abroad.”

Even in the midst of a war in the Middle East, the United States doesn’t have ambassadors in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Iraq or Kuwait. What’s more, this isn’t a situation in which a sclerotic Senate has struggled to confirm nominees; rather, there are vacancies because the White House hasn’t bothered to even nominate anyone for many of these posts.

And by "right," I mean correct. I think not. This story about his collection of incompetent ambassadors is as funny as it is disquieting. What could possibly go wrong with our Ambassador to Canada continuing to bray about making Canada our "51st state?" LOL. And he's just one of many idiots charged with carrying out our diplomatic efforts abroad.

Controversial U.S. ambassador to Canada adds to Trump’s many diplomatic woes
