Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders said he has talked to the Biden transition team about becoming the labor secretary in the new administration.

Last week, Sanders said that he would be willing to accept the position if President-elect Joe Biden asked, but on CNN's State of the Union, Sanders confirmed that he was seeking the position.

"Have you had any conversations with anyone from the Biden transition team about a possible Cabinet post?" Jake Tapper asked on Sunday.

"I talked to the Biden administration," Sanders said. "I want to do my best in whatever capacity, as a senator or in the administration, to protect the working families in this country."

Might as well give it to him, to vacate his Senate seat.

Hmmm.... as odd as it may seem, the governor of Vermont -- Phil Scott -- is currently a Republican, right?
(looking this up)
Yes, he is!

Could he appoint a REPUBLICAN to succeed crazy Bernie?
Or perhaps... appoint HIMSELF...?

I'm just hoping that all these people and all the plans that Sloe Joe crumble after Trump winds up with enough EV and we have 4 more years ... I know that the chances are slim .... but .... I haven't developed the stomach nor the mental attitude to adjust to Sloe.   That would take smokin' a lot of @corbe weed and many many drinks at the Castle.
