Cheney now a Trump surrogate
Click here for reuse options!Trump trashed the hawkish foreign policy of the second Bush White House. But now, he and his team are relying on the man most closely identified with that regime — Dick Cheney — to help ensure that Rex Tillerson is confirmed next year as Trump’s secretary of state.
As Republicans have voiced reservations about Tillerson’s relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Cheney — himself a former oil executive, a longtime Tillerson friend, and perhaps the country’s most famous foreign policy hawk — is serving as a bridge between the Trump team and skeptical Republican senators.
It’s a scenario no one could have possibly foreseen: that one of the key architects of the Iraq War, which Trump slammed on the campaign trail, is now being enlisted as an emissary for a man Trump wants to help steer his ship of state.

Evil grows in the dark
Where the sun it never shines
Evil grows in cracks and holes
And lives in people’s minds– with thanks to the Poppy Family

Mr. Trump cozying up to Vladomir Putin and now this? It sounds like they are planning to bring back the concentration camps!

there is NOT a damn thing about this that is normal or good for humanity. tRump, pUtin & a mega murderer #2 cheney is all we need to know the writings on the wall that there will be war. the question is, will it be survival for all of humanity? tRump wants to hit the fk’n nuke button since we have one. and the ass doesn’t realize that we aren’t the only ones with one.
